The given system is
Given that y = y, let's combine the equations
Let's solve for x
Then, we find y
The solution is (2, -3).
The image below shows the solution graphically.
Hi there!
The answer is actually D.
Since both the numerator and the denominator multiplied by 3 is 3/9, the answer would be 9.
-1 × 3 = -3
-3 × 3 = -9
Since a negative number times a positive number is a negative number, the correct answer would be D.
Hope this helps!
