Apair of equations is shown below: y = 8x - 9 y = 4x - 1 part a: explain how you will solve the pair of equations by substitution or elimination. show all the steps and write the solution. (5 points) part b: if the two equations are graphed, at what point will the lines representing the two equations intersect? explain your answer. (5 points)

A. x=2, y = 7.

B. (2, 7).

Step-by-step explanation:

A. You can eliminate y by subtracting the equations:

y =  8x - 9

y =  4x - 1       Subtract:

0 =  4x - 8

4x = 8

x = 8/4 = 2.

Now substitute for x in the first equation:

y = 8(2) - 9 = 7.

Check in the second equation:

y = 4x - 1

7 = 4(2) - 1 = 7.  Check is OK.

B. On the graph they will intersect at the point (2, 7).

They will intersect here because the values x=2 and y=7 satisfy both the 2 equations.
