Question

A system of equations is graphed on the coordinate plane. y = -3x - 9 y = 3x + 9 What is the solution to the system of equations? (0,3) ( (-3,0) (3,0) (0,-3)​

Answer 1

Answer: B. (-3, 0)

Explanation:

y = -3x - 9...(1)

y = 3x + 9...(2)

Substitute (1) into (2)

3x+9=-3x-9

6x=-18

x=-3

Substitute y=0 into (1)

y=3(-3)+9

y=0

Therefore, the solution to the system is the ordered pair (-3, 0)
