A graph of the system of equations is shown in the picture below. Yes, the point (2, 8) is a solution to the system.

In order to graphically determine the solution for this system of linear equations on a coordinate plane, we would make use of an online graphing calculator to plot the given system of linear equations while taking note of the point of intersection;

y = 3x + 2 ......equation 1.

y = 4x ......equation 2.

Based on the graph shown, we can logically deduce that the solution for this system of linear equations is the point of intersection of each lines on the graph that represents them in quadrant I. Hence, this is represented by the ordered pair (2, 8).

In this context, the pair of linear equation has exactly one solution;

x = 2

y = 8

Complete Question:

Is (2, 8) a solution to this system of equations? y=3x+2 y=4x.

Y = 3× 2. Y = 4x is 2,8 a solution-example-1
