Y=-13x-4

Y=3x+6 a. One solution b. Infinite

1 answer

a. One solution

To find the point where these two lines intersect, we can set Y equal to each other:

-13x - 4 = 3x + 6

Combine the x terms:

-16x - 4 = 6

Add 4 to both sides:

-16x = 10

Divide by -16:

x = -10/16

x = -5/8

Now, plug this value back into either equation to find the value of y:

y = 3(-5/8) + 6
y = -15/8 + 6
y = -15/8 + 48/8
y = 33/8

So, the point of intersection is (-5/8, 33/8) which means there is one solution.
