Math Problem Statement
Solution
The uploaded image shows a question about solving systems of equations graphically, with one graph provided and multiple-choice options for the equation of a second line (question 4). It also includes a system of equations to solve graphically in question 5. Let’s analyze question 4 first.
Question 4 Analysis:
The graph shows two intersecting lines, with the solution to the system given as the point . To find which equation could represent the second line, substitute into each equation from the options:
-
Option A: Substitute : This is incorrect.
-
Option B: Substitute : This is incorrect.
-
Option C: Substitute : This is incorrect.
-
Option D: Substitute : This is correct.
Thus, the answer for question 4 is D.
