Answer:
The answer to your question is (1, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
See the graph below, in the graph, the solution is circled (1, -2). The solution is the point where the lines cross.
To check the answer, let's solve the system using algebra.
y = 2x - 4
y = 1 - 3x
2x - 4 = 1 - 3x
2x + 3x = 1 + 4
5x = 5
x = 5/5
x = 1
Find y by substitution
y = 2(1) - 4
y = 2 - 4
y = -2
Solution
(1, -2)
Answer:
the point is (3, 3) . . . . . . y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Write the point-slope equation of the line through the point you know. Then evaluate that equation for x=3 to see what the value of y is.
Point-slope form:
y = m(x -h) +k . . . . slope m through point (h, k)
y = -1/2(x -9) +0 . . . . line with slope -1/2 through point (9, 0)
For x=3, the value of y is ...
y = -1/2(3 -9) + 0 = -1/2(-6) = 3
The value of y is 3.
