Question

8. Using the graph below, what is the solution for the system of linear equations shown?

y=3x+8

y=3x-4

A. (8,-4)
B. Infinitely many solutions
C. (3, 3)
D. No solution

Answer 1

To find the solution for the system of linear equations y = 3x + 8 and y = 3x - 4, we can set the two equations equal to each other:

3x + 8 = 3x - 4

By subtracting 3x from both sides of the equation, we get:

8 = -4

However, this equation is not possible since 8 cannot be equal to -4. This means that there is no solution that satisfies both equations simultaneously.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. No solution.
