consider the following two linear equations -2x+4y=4 "2x+8y=8" solve for the point of intersection

Respuesta :

[tex] - 2x + 4y = 4[/tex]

[tex]2x + 8y = 8[/tex]

Add the systems together:

[tex]2x - 2x + 4y + 8y = 4 + 8[/tex]

[tex]12y = 12[/tex]

[tex]y = 1[/tex]

Substitute y=1 in any equation:

[tex]2x + 8(1) = 8[/tex]

[tex]2x + 8 \: = 8[/tex]

[tex]2x = 0[/tex]

[tex]x = 0[/tex]

Define point A as the intersection between the two lines:

[tex]a(0. \: .1)[/tex]
