Chapter 4: Q 331 (page 479)

In the following exercises, solve the following system of equations by graphing

x+4y=-1x=3

Short Answer

Expert verified

The solution to the linear equations is (3,-1).

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information

The given equations are

x+4y=-1x=3

02

Step 2. Finding the intersecting points 

First, solve both of these equations for y such that their slopes and y intercepts may be easily graphed.

And find the slope and y-intercept by solving the first equation for y.

x+4y=-14y=-x-1y=-14x-14Heretheslopeism=4Andthey-interceptisb=-14
