Q:

What is 6x – 8 = 4 written as a system? y = 6x – 8 y = –4 y = 6x – 8 y = 4 y = –6x + 8 y = 4

Accepted Solution

A:
6x – 8 = 4 written as a system. Hence second option is correctSolution:Given, equation is 6x – 8 = 4. We have to find the equivalent system from given options. First let us solve given equation, 6x – 8 = 4 ⇒ 6x = 4 + 8 ⇒ 6x = 12 ⇒ x = 2 Now, let us solve one by one option ,so that when we get above solution, that is correct option. y = 6x – 8 and y = -4 ⇒ put y = -4 in y = 6x – 8 ⇒ 6x – 8 = -4 ⇒ 6x = 8 – 4⇒ 6x = 4 ⇒ x ≠ 2, wrong option y = 6x – 8 and y = 4 ⇒ put y = 4 in y = 6x – 8 ⇒ 6x – 8 = 4 ⇒ 6x = 8 + 4 ⇒ 6x = 12 ⇒ x = 2, right option. y = -6x + 8 and y = 4 ⇒ put y = 4 in y = -6x + 8 ⇒ -6x + 8 = 4 ⇒ 6x = 8 – 4 ⇒ 6x = 4 ⇒ x ≠ 2, wrong option hence, second option is correct.
