Please help fast. - a pair of equations are shown below:

y = 7x - 8
y = 5x - 2

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 7x - 8 → (1)

y = 5x - 2 → (2)

A

Solving by substitution

Substitute y = 7x - 8 into (1)

7x - 8 = 5x - 2 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

2x - 8 = - 2 ( add 8 to both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (1)

y = 7(3) - 8 = 21 - 8 = 13

Solution is (3, 13 )

B

The point of intersection of the graph of the 2 equations is the solution to the above equations.

That is point of intersection = (3, 13 )

maya’s expression will generate the wrong sum because she violated the commutative property.
