Which graph shows the solution to the system of linear equations?

y = 4x − 1
16x − 4y = 16

Coordinate plane with one line that passes through the points 0 comma 1 and 1 comma 2.
Coordinate plane with one line that passes through the points 0 comma negative 4 and 1 comma 0 and another line that passes through the points 0 comma 1 and 1 comma 2.

Answer:

No Solution

Explanation:

Solve by substitution. Substitute 4x -1 for y in the second equation

16x - 4(4x - 1) = 16 Distribute the -4

16x -16x + 4 = 16 Combine like terms

4 = 16

This is a false statement so there is no solution.
