Answer:

(2, -1)

Explanation:

Given system of equations:


\begin{cases}y=-2x+3\\y+9=4x\end{cases}

To solve the given system of equations, we can use the method of substitution.

Substitute the first equation into the second equation to eliminate the y term:


(-2x+3)+9=4x

Solve for x:


-2x+3+9=4x


-2x+12=4x


-2x+12+2x=4x+2x


12=6x


(12)/(6)=(6x)/(6)


2=x


x=2

Substitute the found value of x into the first equation and solve for y:


y=-2(2)+3


y=-4+3


y=-1

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is (2, -1).

To verify the solution by graphing the system, find two points on each line by substituting two values of x into each equation. Plot the points and draw a line through them. The solution is the point of intersection.

Graphing y = -2x + 3


\begin{aligned} x=0 \implies y&=-2(0)+3\\y&=0+3\\y&=3\end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} x=-2 \implies y&=-2(-2)+3\\y&=4+3\\y&=7\end{aligned}

Plot points (0, 3) and (-2, 7) and draw a straight line through them.

Graphing y + 9 = 4x


\begin{aligned} x=0 \implies y+9&=4(0)\\y+9&=0\\y&=-9\end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} x=3 \implies y+9&=4(3)\\y+9&=12\\y&=3\end{aligned}

Plot points (0, -9) and (3, 3) and draw a straight line through them.

The solution to the graphed system of equations is the point of intersection of the two lines: (2, 1).
