STEP 1

1. The system consists of two linear equations.
2. The solution to the system is the point where the two lines intersect.
3. The equations are given in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b y = mx + b .

STEP 2

1. Identify the slope and y-intercept for each line.
2. Graph the first line using its slope and y-intercept.
3. Graph the second line using its slope and y-intercept.
4. Determine the point of intersection.
5. Write the solution as an ordered pair.

STEP 3

Identify the slope and y-intercept for each line.
For the first equation y=23x+4 y = \frac{2}{3}x + 4 : - Slope (m1 m_1 ) = 23 \frac{2}{3} - Y-intercept (b1 b_1 ) = 4
For the second equation y=2x4 y = -2x - 4 : - Slope (m2 m_2 ) = -2 - Y-intercept (b2 b_2 ) = -4

STEP 4

Graph the first line using its slope and y-intercept.
1. Plot the y-intercept (0, 4) on the graph.
2. Use the slope 23 \frac{2}{3} to find another point. From (0, 4), move up 2 units and right 3 units to reach (3, 6).
3. Draw the line through these points.

STEP 5

Graph the second line using its slope and y-intercept.
1. Plot the y-intercept (0, -4) on the graph.
2. Use the slope 2-2 to find another point. From (0, -4), move down 2 units and right 1 unit to reach (1, -6).
3. Draw the line through these points.

STEP 6

Determine the point of intersection.
1. Observe where the two lines intersect on the graph.
2. The intersection point is the solution to the system of equations.

STEP 7

Write the solution as an ordered pair.
The lines intersect at the point (3,2)(-3, 2).
The solution to the system of equations is:
(3,2) \boxed{(-3, 2)}
