The first step in solving a system of linear equations by graphing is?

A. decide whether the lines could be perpendicular
B. Plot the y intercept and then another point using the slope for each line
 I know the answer isn't C and D so I didn't add them on here.
Thank you !

um B? I think what B is saying is basically to plot each linear equation on the graph.

I'm not sure, but I don't think in A, lines being perpindicular has to do with actually solving for the value in the the system of linear equations?

Anyway, hope this helps. Maybe you should ask the teacher?
