correct ordered pair.
y = 12x-8
y = 8x
O
A. (2, 16)
B. (5, 11)
O C. (4,12)
O
D. (3, 15)

Answer 1

The solution of the equation y = 12x – 8 and y = 8x will be (2, 16). Then the correct option is A.

What is the linear system?

A linear system is one in which the parameter in the equation has a degree of one.

The system of the equations are given below.

y = 12x – 8 …1

y = 8x       …2

Put equation 2 in equation 1, then we have

8x = 12x – 8

 8 = 12x – 8

4x = 8

 x = 2

Then put the value of x in equation 2, we have

y = 8 × 2

y = 16

Then the solution of the equation will be (2, 16).

Then the correct option is A.
