Solve the system of linear equations:
y = 8x - 2
y - 8x = -2
A lot of equations
Another name for growth is....
slope
y = -3x - 2
-3
Describe and correct the error in solving the system of linear equations.
y = -2x + 4
y = -2x + 6
The lines have the same slope so there are infinitely many solutions.
