Answer:

The first graph is the solution to:

x = y - 2 (blue line)

y-8 = -1/2x (red line)

where the solution is (4,6)

The second graph is the solution to:

x = y - 2 (blue line)

y-8 = -2x (red line)

where the solution is (2,4)

Explanation:

The second equation is not clear. From the figures, the possible functions are: y-8 = -1/2x and y-8 = -2x.

To graphically solve a system you have to draw each line on the plane and look at the intersection point.
