The equation of the first line can be written in point-slope form as
.. y = 3(x +1) -8
or
.. 3x -y = 5

The equation of the second line can be written in 2-point form as
.. y = (-1-3)/(10-(-6))*(x +6) +3
.. y = (-1/4)(x +6) +3
or
.. x +4y = 6

A graph shows the solution to this system is (x, y) = (2, 1).

_____
The second equation can be used to write an expression for x:
.. x = 6 -4y
This can be substituted into the first equation.
.. 3(6 -4y) -y = 5
.. 18 -13y = 5 . . . . . . . collect terms
.. 13 = 13y . . . . . . . . . add 13y-5
.. 1 = y . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 13
From the above equation for x
.. x = 6 -4*1 = 2

SOLVE THE EQUATION FOR Y
max2010maxim [7]
(4)\ -6x + y = 11\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ y=6x+11\\\\(5)\ \ 8x + 2y = 10\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 2y=-8x+10\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ y=-4x+5\\\\(6)\ \  6x - 3y = -9\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ -3y=-6x-9\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ y=2x+3\\\\(7)\ \  -4x + 2y = 16\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 2y=4x+16\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ y=2x+8\\\\
(8)\ \  10x - 5y = 25\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ -5y=-10x+25\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ y=2x-5\\\\(9)\ \  3x + 2y = -8\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 2y=-3x-8\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ y=-1.5x-4
