Answer

Infinitely Many Solutions See graph below

Work Step by Step

Given the system of equations: 1. $2x - 7y = 28$ 2. $y = 2/7 x - 4$ It asks to find all solutions and to graph. Substitute $y = 2/7x - 4$ $2x - 7(2/7x - 4)= 28$ $2x - 2x + 28 = 28$ $28 = 28$ Infinitely Many Solutions See graph below. The red line is graph 1; the blue line is graph 2 Only one line is present because there are infinitely many solutions.
