Question 327298: *Determine how many solutions exist
*Use either elimination or substitution to find the solutions (if any)
*Graph the two lines, labeling the x-intercepts, y-intercepts, and points of intersection
y = 2x + 3 and y = -x - 4

Since they both equal y set them equal to each other to eliminate y.



Now use either equation to solve for y.

.

To find x intercept, set y=0 solve for x.



(-3/2,0)

To find y intercept, set x=0 solve for y.


(0,3)

To find x intercept, set y=0 solve for x.


(-4,0)
