Based on the graph of the two linear equations, the point of intersection appears to be around (1, 5). This would be the estimated solution to the system of equations y = 2x + 3 and y = 1/2x + 6.
Wrong
Let's find the exact solution to the system of equations y = 2x + 3 and y = 1/2x + 6.

Since both equations are equal to y, we can set them equal to each other:

2x + 3 = 1/2x + 6

Now, let's solve for x:

2x - 1/2x = 6 - 3
(4/2)x - (1/2)x = 3
(3/2)x = 3
x = 3/(3/2)
x = 3 * 2/3
x = 2

Now that we have x = 2, we can substitute this back into one of the equations to find y. Let's use the equation y = 2x + 3:

y = 2(2) + 3
y = 4 + 3
y = 7

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations y = 2x + 3 and y = 1/2x + 6 is x = 2 and y = 7.
A) (2, -7)
B) (-2,7)
C) (7, 2)
D) (2, 7)
Let's check the solution of the system of equations y = 2x + 3 and y = 1/2x + 6 by substituting it into the equations.

For the point (2, 7):
y = 2(2) + 3
y = 4 + 3
y = 7

y = 1/2(2) + 6
y = 1 + 6
y = 7

So, the point (2, 7) satisfies both equations. Therefore, the correct answer is D) (2, 7).

Based on the graph of the two linear equations y = -x + 6 and y = 3x - 2, the point of intersection appears to be around (2, 4). So, the estimated solution to the system of equations would be x = 2 and y = 4.
Determine the number of solutions to this system of linear equations:
2x + y=6
1x + 2y = 8
To determine the number of solutions to this system of linear equations, we need to check if the two equations are consistent and whether they intersect at a single point, have no solution, or have infinitely many solutions.

Let's rearrange the equations into slope-intercept form:
1. 2x + y = 6 becomes y = -2x + 6
2. x + 2y = 8 becomes y = -1/2x + 4

The equations are consistent and have different slopes, indicating that the lines intersect at a single point. Therefore, this system of linear equations has exactly one solution.

It seems that you have provided only one equation (4x - 8y = -36). In order to solve a system of equations, we need at least two equations. If you have another equation to provide, please include it so we can solve the system for you.
