Q:

A system of equations consists of a line s of the equation y = x - 5 that is graphed in orange, and a line t that passes through the points (0, 2) and (8, -4). The equation of line t is y = βˆ’34x + 2. What is the solution to this system of linear equations?

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:(4, -1) β†’ x = 4 and y = -1Step-by-step explanation:Look at the picture.Mark points (0, 2) and (8, -4) in the coordinate system.Plot the line going through these points.Read the coordinates of the intersection of the line (solution).
