  2. 2
  3. -2
  4. -4

$$\eqalign{4a+2b&=14\\a+3b&=6}$$

2. If point $(a,b)$ is the solution to the system of equations above, what is $ab$?

3. One line has a slope of 3 and passes through point (0,1).  Another line passes through points (3,4) and (5,6). If the points intersect at point $(b,c)$, what is $b+c$?

  1. $\dfrac{3}{4}$
  2. $-\dfrac{13}{4}$
  3. $-\dfrac{10}{4}$
  4. $1$

 

 

4. One line has a slope of -2 and passes through the origin.  Another line passes through points (0,0) and (12,1). If the points intersect at point $(x,y)$, what is $xy$?
