Answer:
Look for the same entry in both (all) tables.
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume here that the system of equations consists of two equations in two variables. If there are more equations in more variables, the general approach is the same.
A "solution" to a system of equations is a set of variable values that satisfies all equations of the system simultaneously. A table for one equation will generally list sets of variable values that satisfy that equation. <em>When the same set of values appears in the table for each of the equations, then that set of values is the solution</em>.

<u>Example</u>
The attachment shows tables for two equations:
Highlighted are the table entries that are the same for both equations. This is the solution to the system of equations. (x, y) = (3, 6) satisfies both equations:
Answer:
y = x/4 -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
given coordinates : ( -2, -1 ) and ( 2 , 0 )
gradient = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
= 0 - -1 / 2 - -2
= 1/4
equation of line:
y - y1 = m( x - x1 )
y - 0 = 1/4 ( x - 2 )
y = x/4 -1/2
the line shown below to confirm:
