question 54

Multiple Choice

Solve the system of linear equations by the method of elimination and identify the grey line in the graph with its linear equation. $\left\{ \begin{array} { c } 6 x - 6 y = - 48 \\x + 4 y = 12\end{array} \right.$

• A)The solution is (-4,4) and the equation of the grey line is \(6 x - 6 y = - 48\) .
• B)The solution is (-4,4) and the equation of the grey line is \(x + 4 y = - 20\) .
• C)The solution is (-4,4) and the equation of the grey line is \(6 x - 6 y = - 48\) .
• D)The solution is \(( 4 , - 4 )\) and the equation of the grey line is \(6 x - 6 y = - 48\) .
• E)The solution is \(( 4 , - 4 )\) and the equation of the grey line is \(6 x - 6 y = - 48\) .
