Answer:

Point slope form of the equations:

y = -3x + 8

y = 2x - 2

Solution to the system of equations:

(x, y) ==> (2, 4)

Explanation:

6x + 2y = 16

2x - y = 2

6x + 2y = 16

2(2x - y = 2) ==> 4x - 2y = 4

6x + 2y = 16

4x - 2y = 4

10x = 20

/10 /10

x = 2

Now, we solve for y:

6x + 2y = 16

6(2) + 2y = 16

12 + 2y = 16

-12 -12

2y = 4

/2 /2

y = 2

(x, y) ==> (2, 2)

Point-slope forms:

6x + 2y = 16

-6x -6x

2y = -6x + 16

/2 /2

y = -3x + 8

2x - y = 2

-2x -2x

-1y = -2x + 2

/-1 -1

y = 2x - 2

Hope this helps!
