A system of equations is graphed on the coordinate plane. y=−6x−3y=−x+2 What is the solution to the system of equations? Enter the coordinates of the solution in the boxes
Question
Answer:
If you equate both, the y is eliminated:-6x-3 = -x+2
Simplify this to find x:
-5x = 5
x = -1
Fill in x=-1 in either equation:
y = --1 + 2 = 3
So (-1,3) is the solution, it is where the lines intercept.
