Answer:

A, C

Explanation:

The attached graph shows which lines go through the given point. They are ...

y = 1/2x -1 . . . . 1st selection

y = -1/6x +3 . . . 3rd selection

__

The equations can be found algebraically by substituting the given point in the equation and seeing if the result is a true statement.

a) 2 = (1/2)(6) -1 = 3 -1 . . . true

b) 2 = -3(6) . . . . false

c) 2 = -1/6(6) +3 = -1 +3 . . . true

d) 2 = 2/3(6) -1 = 4 -1 . . . . false

e) 2 = 4(6) -2 = 24 -2 . . . . false

f) 2 = -3/2(6) +6 = -9 +6 . . . . false

The solution to the system is (6,2) Select all the equations that could be the other-example-1
