Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
hello :
Part A : x+6y =6 means : 6y = - x+6
so : y = (-1/6)x+1 an equation for the line (D)
y = (1/3)x -2 is the line (D')
PartB : solution of the system : y = (-1/6)x+1 ....(1) color red
y = (1/3)x -2 ....(2) color bleu
is the intersection point : (6 ; 0)
PartC : Algebraically by (1) and (2) : (-1/6)x+1 = (1/3)x -2
(-1/6)x - (1/3)x = -2-1
(-x-2x)/6= -3
-3x = -18
so : x = 6 put this value in (1) or (2) : y = (-1/6)(6)+1 =0 the solution is : (6 ;0)
