Question

Help can’t figure out the answer!

Answer 1

A. (-1, -1)

Explanation:

You can see on the graph that both lines meet at (-1,-1) but you can also solve for it using the equations if you need additional proof.

You can set the two equations equal to each other and solve for x. Then you can use the x that you find and it should be that if you plug it into either equation you get the same y value.

`4x+3=-x-2`

Add x to each side and subtract 3 from each side

`4x+x=-2-3`

`5x=-5`

Divide each side by 5

`x=-1`

Then plug it into either equation and y should equal -1

eq. 1

`y=4*(-1) +3\\y=-4+3\\y=-1`

eq. 2

`y= -(-1)-2\\y=1-2\\y=-1`
