Question

Which graph represents the solution for the equation 4 3 x + 2 = 5x? A) A B) B C) C D) D

Answer 1

Answer:

A) A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is given by

$y=mx+q$

where

m is the slope of the curve

q is the y-intercept of the curve

The two lines given in the problem are:

$y=\frac{4}{3}x+2$ --> slope of 4/3 and y-intercept of +2

$y=5x$ --> slope of 5 and y-intercept of 0

By exclusion, we see that the correct answer is A. In fact:

- Option B is wrong, because one of the two lines has negative slope, while the two lines given in the problem have both positive slope

- Option C is wrong, because one of the two lines is flat (slope=0), while none of the two lines given in the problem has a slope of zero

- Option D is wrong, because again one of the two lines has negative slope

Option A is the correct one: in fact, we see that the black line has an y-intercept of +2 and a slope of 4/3, while the green line has a slope of 5 and an y-intercept of zero.
