Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
7x - y = 7
x + 2y = 6
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
Equation: x + 2y = 6
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2y on both sides: x = 6 - 2y
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
7x - y = 7
x = 6 - 2y
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 7(6 - 2y) - y = 7
- Distribute 7: 42 - 14y - y = 7
- Combine like terms: 42 - 15y = 7
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 42 on both sides: -15y = -35
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide -15 on both sides: y = 7/3
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Define original equation: x + 2y = 6
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: x + 2(7/3) = 6
- Multiply: x + 14/3 = 6
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 14/3 on both sides: x = 4/3
The answer to the question
Answer:
C)
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that one of the lines is simply y=-1 for any x, so we can dismiss the only answer without y=-1. That rejected answer is A)
Now let's notice, that the other line is decreasing y when increasing x. That tells us that in the equation y = ax + b, a has to be negative. This brings us to reject option D).
What is the y of that line for x = 0? Because y = ax + b, for x = 0 we will get the value of b. This is called the intercept. The line is at y=4 for x=0, so we know that the b in the equation must be positive 4. This fits answer C, but rejects answer B). And so, we have found that C) is the only possible answer.
