Answer: The graph is shown below
The solution to the system is (x,y) = (2,3)
=============================================================
Explanation:
To graph
, we need two points. Generating any (x,y) point involves picking a random x value to find its paired y value. For instance, if you plugged in x = 0, you should get to y = -2 which is the y intercept. Then trying something like x = 2 will lead to y = 3. This line goes through (0,-2) and (2,3). This line is shown in red below.
The blue line is horizontal and goes through 3 on the y axis. Every point on this horizontal line has the same y coordinate of 3. The x value doesn't matter, so it's not part of the equation y = 3.
The intersection of the red and blue line is the solution to the system. That intersection occurs at (x,y) = (2,3). This means x = 2 and y = 3 pair up together to make both original equations true.
Since this system has at least one solution, we consider it a consistent system.
To graph the line, we must first find out the equation for the line in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b). So far, we only have the slope, so the line's equation is y = 3/4x + b. But, by inserting the values of x and y in the point we know, we can find the y - intercept.
4 = 3/4 + b
b = 13/4
That means that the equation of our line is y = 3/4x + 13/4. Now we can graph. But, there is another way to go about (slightly faster too). Since we know the coordinates of 1 point, we can put that line down. Then, since we know that slope is rise over run, we can say, that with a slope of 3/4, one would go 3 points up for every 4 to the right. Now we can go 3 points up and 4 points to the right of point (1,4). That would be (5, 7). Now we can graph (since we have 2 points, or an equation).
The graph looks like this:
