We can see that the lines intersect at (-5,3) on the graph, so that eliminates choices B and D. Both A and C say that the first line is y=x+8, which is true. A says that the second line is y+x=-2, and after isolating y, we get y=-x+2, which seems correct. Do the same for C, and you will find that it says the other equation is y=x-2, which is not true because it must have a negative slope. So your answer will be choice A.
Answer:
3u-15
Step-by-step explanation:
3(u-5)
Just multiply 3 by both of the numbers inside the parentheses and we get: 3u-15
Answer:
Parallel
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts. If you multiply the top equation by 2, you get:
2(12x + 4y = 16)
24x + 8y = 32
This shows that both lines have the same slope, but then you find the y-intercepts, they are different:
1st equation y-int = 4
2nd equation y-int = 9/2 or 4.5
