Question

Graph the system of equations on graph paper.

{6x+4y=24
2x−4y=−8
Which statements are true about the solution to the system of equations? Select each correct answer.
The x-coordinate of the solution is 3.
The ordered pair that is the solution to the system lies in Quadrant IV .
The x-coordinate of the solution is 2.
The y-coordinate of the solution is 3.
The y-coordinate of the solution is −2 .
The ordered pair that is the solution to the system lies in Quadrant I .

Answer 1

The first thing you should observe in the graph is that
6x + 4y = 24 is a line with a negative slope.
2x-4y = -8 is a line with positive slope.
After you identify the functions you can choose the correct affirmations.
The x-coordinate of the solution is 2.
The y-coordinate of the solution is 3.
The ordered pair that is the solution to the system lies in Quadrant I.
