Consider the system of equations. y = 3x + 2 y = − 2 3 x − 4 Explain why these particular equations can be graphed immediately.

These equations are in slope-intercept form. I can use the y-intercept and slope to graph both lines. I plot the y-intercept and use rise over run to locate another point on the line. Then, I can draw a line through the two points.

Step-by-step explanation:

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

4x - 6 + 6 = 4x - 6 + 6

4x = 4x

x = x
