Answer:

(9/4, -1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know the y-coordinate of the solution:  It is y = -1/2.  To find the x-coordinate, we substitute -1/2 for y in y = 2x - 5:

-1/2 = 2x - 5

Clearing out fractions, we multiply all three terms by 2:

-1 = 4x - 10, or

4x = 9

Then x = 9/4

The solution is (9/4, -1/2)

ANSWER IF YOU KNOW!!!!! THANKS
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The third graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations for the lines will be

P(x) = 2x-4

l(x) = -2x-4

When x = 0 both of these functions equal -4. The only graph where this happens is the third one.

You can check this by looking at the slopes and plugging in points.

Get y in terms of x then substitute the expression into the other equation.

#7.
y - 2x = -6
y = 2x -6
y gets substituted for 2x - 6
5x - (2x - 6) = 9
5x - 2x + 6 = 9
3x + 6 = 9
3x = 9 - 6
3x = 3
x = 1
use this to find the other one
y - 2(1) = -6
y - 2 = -6
y = 2 - 6
y = -4

#8.
3y + x = 2
x = 2 - 3y
substitute x for 2 - 3y in the second equation
y - (2 - 3y) = -6
y - 2 + 3y = -6
4y - 2 = -6
4y = 2 - 6
4y = -4
y = -1
use this to find the other one
-1 - x = -6
-x = 1 - 6
-x = -5
x = 5
