7 0

Answer:

16 and 28

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 44                    

x - y = 12

x = 12 + y

x + y = 44

12 + y + y = 44

12 + 2y = 44

2y = 32

y = 16

x + y = 44

x + 16 = 44

X = 28

Solve the system of equations by graphing: -1/3x + y=-1, y=4+1/3x
Arada [10]

-\frac{1}{3}x + y = -1   ⇒   y = \frac{1}{3}x - 1

To graph this line, plot a point at the y-intercept (0, -1), than plot the next point using the rise over run from the slope (\frac{1}{3}) by counting up 1 and to the right 3 of the y-intercept.  This gives you a second point of (3. 0).  Draw a line through those two coordinates.

Answer: Plot (0, -1) and (3, 0) and draw a line through them.

***************************************************************************************

y = 4 +  \frac{1}{3}x    ⇒   y =  \frac{1}{3}x  + 4

Same as above.  Plot the y-intercept (0, 4) and then use rise over run from the slope to plot (3, 5).

Answer: Plot (0, 4) and (3, 5) and draw a line through them.

***********************************************************************************

You should end up with two PARALLEL lines.  Since the lines never intersect, there are no solutions to this system of equations.

Answer: No Solution
