Question 253245: I am trying to solve these equations. We are to graph the system and estimate the solution then check the solution algebraically:
2x-3y = -2
x+y = -6
This is what I have done so far and it isn't coming out correctly:
2x-3y = -2
2x+2=3y
2/3x + 2/3 = y
x+y= -6
x+6= -y
I plotted the line at (0,2/3) (3, 2 2/3) and at (-3, -1 1/3)
The book says I am wrong and I don't understand why. Please help!
ANy help you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
