The graph shows two lines, a and b.
a graph is shown with x- and y-axes labeled from 0 to 6 at increments of 1. a straight line labeled a joins the ordered pair 2, 6 with the ordered pair 5, 0. another straight line labeled b joins the ordered pair 0, 2 with the ordered pair 6, 6.
part a: how many solutions does the pair of equations for lines a and b have? explain your answer.
part b: what is the solution to the equations of lines a and b? explain your answer.

solution is : (4,4)

Step-by-step explanation: there will be one solution because the lines intersect at exactly one set of points.

(0,6)(6,3)

slope(m) = (3-6) / (6-0) = -3/6 = -1/2

y = mx + b

6 = -1/2(0) + b

6 = b

y = -1/2x + 6

(0,0)(6,6)

slope(m) = (6-0) / (6-0) = 6/6 = 1

y = mx + b

6 = 1(6) + b

6 = 6 + b

6 - 6 = b

0 = b

y = x + 0

x = -1/2x + 6

1/2x + x = 6

1/2x + 2/2x = 6

3/2x = 6

x = 6/(3/2)

x = 6 * 2/3

x = 12/3 = 4

P.S. I'm pretty sure the other guy is drunk XD

answer: 42

use a calculator to find that 845/73 = 11.575

the whole part of the answer is 11. multiply this by 73 to get 11*73 = 803.

subtract that result from 845 to get 845 - 803 = 42
