Question

The graph below represents the system of equations 3x+4y=12 and 2x-y=8.

A coordinate grid with 2 lines. One line passes through (0, 3) and (4, 0). The other line passes through (2, negative 4) and (4, 0).

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of equations?

(0, 3)
(3, 0)
(4, 0)
(0, 4)

Answer 1

(4, 0)

Check: 3(4)+4(0)=12 and 2(4)-0=8, so (4,0) satisfies both equations.
