Two lines, c and d, are represented by the equations given below: line c: y = x + 14 line d: y = 3x + 2 which of the following shows the solution to the system of equations and explains why?

(6, 20), because both lines pass through this point

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that both equations are equal to y.  This means we can set the two equations equal to each other:

x+14 = 3x+2

Subtract x from each side:

x+14-x = 3x+2-x

14 = 2x+2

Subtract 2 from each side:

14-2 = 2x+2-2

12 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2:

12/2 = 2x/2

6 = x

Substitute this into the first equation:

y = x+14

y = 6+14

y = 20

This makes the solution (6, 20).

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.

solving with completing the square

c is the answer
