Question

Determine the solution and the reasoning that justifies the solution to the systems of equations.

O (2,7), because this point is true for both equations
O (4, -6), because this point lies only on one of the two lines
(4, -6), because this point makes both equations true
O (2,7), because the lines intersect the x-axis at these points

Answer 1

• A or C

Explanation:

The system is not given to give exact answer.

Possible solution is:

A. (2,7), because this point is true for both equations

• Yes, same point lies on both lines, it is their intersection

B. (4, -6), because this point lies only on one of the two lines

• No, this is not a solution to both equations

C. (4, -6), because this point makes both equations true

• Yes, same point lies on both lines, it is their intersection

D. (2,7), because the lines intersect the x-axis at these points

• No, this is not confirming any solution
