Question

Graph the solution set of the following system: 
E) None of the above

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

As there are two variables, the solution set will be a line in the Cartesian plane. By rearranging the equations, we get the equation: $y = \frac{1}{2}x + 3$. This is the equation of a line with slope $\frac{1}{2}$ and $y$-intercept $(0,3)$. Therefore, the solution set is a line that passes through $(0,3)$ and has a slope of $\frac{1}{2}$. The only option that fits this description is D.
