Which of these images represents the following system of equations
being solved graphically?
:
Put both equations into the slope/intercept form
-2x + 2y = 8
2y = 2x + 8
Divide by 2
y = x + 4, the first equation
and
-4x - 6y = -4
-6y = 4x - 4
divide -6
y = -4%2F6x + 4%2F6
reduce fractions
y = -2%2F3x + 2%2F3
:
Plot these two equations
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+-2%2C+6%2C+x%2B4%2C+-.67x%2B.67+%29+
solution: -2, 2
