You can solve the equation 3x + 2 = 8 by graphing y = 3x + 2 and y = 8 and finding their point of intersection.
Use the drop-down menus to complete the statements below.
The solution of 3x + 2 = 8 is
A. 2
B. 8
C. (2,8)
D. (8,2)
(2, 8) is a solution of
1. only y = 3x + 2
2. only y = 8
3. both y = 3x + 2 and y = 8
4. neither y = 3x + 2 nor y = 8
