Question

PLEASE HELP ME!! I NEED HELP FAST!

Answer 1

Answer:

part A) rearrange the equations to form simultaneous equations:

y-7x=8

y-5x=-2

now eliminate the y values by minusing the two equations:

(y-7x=8)-(y-5x=-2)

to get:

-2x=-6

x=3

now substitute x into one of the equations to get y:

y=5x-2

y=15-2

y=13

$x = 3 \\ y = 13$

part B) the lines will intercept at (3, 13)

Step-by-step explanation:
