Question 1130407: Ian graphs these equations and finds the lines intersect at a single point (-2, -0.5) equation a: 4y-3x=4, equation b; -2x -8y = 8. Which statement is true about the values x/ -2 and y = -0.5?
A. They satisfy equation a but not b.
B. They are the only values that make both equations true.
C. They show that the equations represent the same line.
D. They satisfy equation B not equation A

You can put this solution on YOUR website!

the lines intersect at a single point (-2, -0.5)
equation a: 4y-3x=4,
equation b; -2x+-8y+=+8
Which statement is true about the values x=-2 and y+=+-0.5?
If the graphs of the equations intersect, then there is one solution that is true for both equations, and in your case solution x=-2 and y+=+-0.5 that is only one true for both equations.

answer:
B. They are the only values that make both equations true.
