Steffen graphed two lines in order to find the solution to a given system of equations.
What is the solution?

• (-3,-8)

• (-8,-3)

• (3,-8)

• (8,3)

Find the slope of the line.

• -2

• 2

• -1

• 1

Find the slope of the line.

• Undefined

• 0

• 1

• -1

Find the slope of the line.

• Undefined

• 0

• 1

• -1

How many roots does this parabola have? 

• 3

• 2

• 0

• 1

Parallel Lines never intersect because...

• they have the same slopes. 

• they have the same y-intercept.

• they have different slopes.

• they have different y-intercepts. 

Erin is 3 years younger than twice Alex's age. Their ages combined are 33 years. How old are Alex and Erin. If x=Erin's age and y=Alex's age, choose the system that matches the situation.

• x + y = 33
  y = 2x - 3

• x + y = 33
  x = 2y - 3

• x + y = 33
  x = 3 - 2y

• x + y = 3
  x = 33 - 2y

• 1/2

• -1/2

• 2

• -2

• vertex

• parabola

• roots or x-intercepts

What is the green dot on the parabola called?

• maximum

• minumum
