The correct answer is <span>C. Lines m and n have the same slope so they are parallel. The slope = 2/3 </span>
The solution of the linear equations will be ( -2, 4).
<h3>What is an equation?</h3>
It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.
Given equations are:-
Solving the equations by elimination method:-
2x +3y = 8
3x+y= -2
Multiply the second equation by 3 and subtract from the first equation.
2x +3y = 8
-9x -3y = 6
----------------
-7x = 14
x = -2
Out of the value of x in any one equation, we will get the value of y.
3x+y= -2
3 ( -2) + y = -2
-6 + y = -2
y = 4
The graph of the equations is also attached with the answer below.
Therefore the solution of the linear equations will be ( -2, 4).
The complete question is given below:-

Answer:
X=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Call T the price of the T-shirts and P de price of the jeans
Initially (without discount)
2T + P = 40
One month later (half prices)
2 (T/2) + 5(P/2) = 60
T +5P/2 = 60
To solve the system of equations multiply the second equation by 2 and substract it from the first equation
2 T + 5P = 120
- (2 T + P = 40 )
________________
4P = 80
P = 80/4
P = 20
From 2T + P = 40
T = (40 - P) / 2 = (40 -20) / 2 = 20/2 = 10.
The price of a T-shirt is $10 and the price of a pair of jeans is $20.
Well idk about geometric theorem or how ever. but, because they have the same line aka the same Slope. The other line is parallel to it. Assuming by the statement, -1/3x has another -1/3x of the same Slope.
