Question

The following system of equations is graphed below.

y=-2x -9
y=2/3x +13/3
Find the solution to the system.
A. x = 1, y = -5
B. x = -5, y = 1
C. x = -5, y = 2
D. x = -4, y = 1

Answer 1

C) is the solution

Explanation:

As the two equations have an intersection at (-5,1), which means they share the same point, then (-5 , 1 ) is the solution for the system.
