Answer:

Your answer would be A

Explanation:

Solve the first equation by moving 2x to the right side and changing the sign:

2x + y = –4

y = –2x — 4

Solve the second equation by dividing both sides by –3

–3y = 2x + 12

y = 2x/–3 + 12/–3

y = –(2x/3) — 4

Now that both are written in slope-intercept form, start graphing. Your variable is the slope. The constant is the y-intercept. The y-intercept is always graphed first. In the first equation, your slope is –2 and your y-intercept is –4. The point of your y-intercept is (0, –4). To graph the slope, you use rise/run. For the slope of –2, you go down 2 and move over one to the right.

For the second equation, the slope is negative two-thirds and the y-intercept is –4. Graph the y-intercept first. The point of the y-intercept is on (0, –4). For the slope, go down 2 and move 3 to the right. Now find the intersection and matching graph to fins your answer.
