The first method is substitution. This is when the x or y value that is known is substituted into one of the equations. This should be done when you can easily see or find the x or y value.

Example: x = 3, and x + 8y = 30.

The x was given in the first equation (x = 3), and can therefore be substituted into the other equation to find y.

The next method is elimination. This is when you add the two systems together and eliminate either the x values or the y values. This should be done when there are opposite signs of the same number in both equations.

Example: y - 3x = 24, and 2y + 3x = 7

In the first equation you have -3x, and in the second you have 3x. If you were to add the two equations, the x values would cancel out and you would be left with:

y + 2y = 24 + 7

And then you could solve for y.

The last method is to graph both equations and to see at which point the lines intersect.

Can someone answer this please

Answer:

Range: (-∞, 0]

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Algebra I</u>

Range is the set of y-values that are outputted by function f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

When we graph the equation, we should see that our y-values span from -∞ to 0. Since 0 is a closed dot, it is inclusive in the range:

(-∞, 0] or y ≤ 0
