Solve the system of linear equations by graphing y = -4x + 2 ; y = -x - 1
What is the solution?

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Easiest way would be to substitute points into the given equations and plot your answers.
E.g. if you substitute points into your first equation you get:
If x = 0, y = -4(0) +2 = 2
If x = 1, y = -4(1) +2 = -2
If x = -1, y = -4(-1) +2 = 6
Etc.
Second equation:
If x = 0, y= -(0) -1 = -1
If x = 1, y = -1 -1 = -2
If x = -1, y = -(-1) -1 = 0
Pretty much just plug in values for x into the equations to find y.
Once you have your points, draw a line :)
Where the two lines intercept would be the solution.
