Answer:
x = -4, y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
-x+2y = -8
3x-y = -6
x = 2y+8
3(2y+8) - y = -6
6y + 24 -y = -6
5y = -30
y = -6
x = 2(-6)+8 = -12+8 = -4
x = -4, y = -6
<h3>Answer:</h3>
c) there are infinitely many solutions
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Add x to the <em>first equation</em> to put it in standard form:
... x + y = 3
Divide the <em>second equation</em> by the common factor of all terms, 2, to put it in standard form:
... x + y = 3
These two equations describe the same line. Every point on the line is a solution to both equations, so there are infinitely many solutions. (We say these equations are "dependent.")
The answer is 4. Work shown in picture.
Start by plotting the y-intercept at (0,1).
From that point, count "up 2, right 1" to get a second point on your graph.
If needed repeat that "up 2, right 1" from that second point to get a third point.
Draw the line that connects these 2 or 3 points.
