1. |
Which is the correct graph for the system of equations x + y = 4 and y = x – 2? |
| |
|
A. |
 |
B. |
 |
| |
|
C. |
 |
D. |
 |
| |
|
Hint |
|
| |
2. |
Solve the system of equations x – y = 3 and 2y = 2x – 6. |
| |
|
A. |
The graphs appear to be parallel lines, so there is no solution to the system. |
| |
|
B. |
(-3,0) |
| |
|
C. |
(0,-3) |
| |
|
D. |
Each equation has the same graph, so there are infinitely many solutions. |
| |
|
Hint |
|
| |
3. |
Solve the system of equations and 2y – 4x = 12. |
| |
|
A. |
The graphs appear to be parallel lines, so there is no solution to the system. |
| |
|
B. |
(-4, -2) |
| |
|
C. |
(-4, -8) |
| |
|
D. |
Each equation has the same graph, so there are infinitely many solutions. |
| |
|
Hint |
|
| |
4. |
State whether the graph is consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent. |
| |
|
 |
| |
|
A. |
consistent and dependent |
| |
|
B. |
consistent and independent |
| |
|
C. |
independent |
| |
|
D. |
none of the these |
| |
