Question

olve the system of equations graphed on the coordinate axes below.
y, equals, minus, 3, x, plus, 2
y=
−3x+2
y, equals, one half, x, plus, 2
y=
2
1
​
x+2

Answer 1

Solve -3x + 2 = (1/2)x + 2.
Subtract 2 from both sides: -3x = (1/2)x.
Multiply by 2: -6x = x → -7x = 0 → x = 0.
Then y = -3(0) + 2 = 2.

Solution: (0, 2).
