The system of equations is y = -2, x - 2y = 6 ⇒ (a)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some facts about the linear equation

The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept [the line intersect the y-axis at point (0, b)]

The equation of any horizontal line is y = b

The equation of any vertical line is x = a, where (a, 0) is the x-intercept

Now let us study the given graph

→ Blue line

∵ The blue line is a horizontal line

∴ Its equation is y = b

∵ b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept

→ The line intersects the y-axis at point (0, -2) which means b = -2

∴ b = -2

∴ The equation of the blue line is y = -2

We have two answers only with the equation y = -2, a and b, so the answer must be one of them. Let us find the equation of the red line to decide which one is the answer.

→ Red line

∵ The equation of the line is y = m x + b

∵ The read line intersects the y-axis at point (0, -3)

∴ b = -3

∴ y = m x + (-3)

∴ y = mx - 3

→ To find m substitute x and y by the coordinates of any point on the line

∵ Point (6, 0) lies on the line

∴ x = 6 and y = 0

∵ 0 = m(6) - 3

∴ 0 = 6m - 3

→ Add 3 to sides

∴ 0 + 3 = 6m - 3 + 3

∴ 3 = 6m

→ Divide both sides by 6 to find m

∴ $\frac{3}{6}=\frac{6m}{6}$

∴ $\frac{1}{2}=m$

→ Substitute the value of m in the equation above

∴ y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x - 3

→ Let us put x and y on one side and the number on the other

side by subtracting y and add 3 to both sides

∵ y - y + 3 = $\frac{1}{2}$ x - 3 + 3 - y

∴ 3 = $\frac{1}{2}$ x - y

→ Multiply both sides by 2

∴ 2(3) = 2( $\frac{1}{2}$ x) - 2(y)

∴ 6 = x - 2y

→ Switch the two sides

∴ x - 2y = 6

∴ The equation of the red line is x - 2y = 6

∵ The equations of the blue line and the red line are in answer a

∴ The system of equations is y = -2, x - 2y = 6

Note: you can use the point of intersection of the lines on the graph (2, -2) and substitute its coordinates in each answer to find which answer will satisfy that the two sides in each equation are equal

Mercury poisoning is dangerous overload of mercury within the body. a major source of mercury within the body, a major source of mercury poisoning is consuming fish that contain mercury. certain fish are more prone to having higher levels of mercury than others. the pie chart shows the distribution of four breeds of fish at a hatchery. the hatchery has approximately 6,000 fish. a biologist from the centers for disease control and prevention randomly test 5% of each breed of fish for mercury content. her findings are shown in the following table. based on the biologist's findings, if a single salmon is randomly selected from those that were tested, what is the probability that this particular fish would have a dangerous mercury level? a) 0.001 b) 0.004 c) 0.02 d) 0.08
