Linear Expressions
1. The problem presents several expressions and a linear equation system: simplifying an expression, solving simple equations, and analyzing a linear equation.
2. Simplify the expression $3(x - 2)$ by distributing the 3:
$$3(x - 2) = 3x - 6$$
3. The equation $y = 2$ is already solved for $y$.
4. The expression $9 + 5 = 6$ is not true; $9 + 5 = 14$, so this is likely an incorrect or separate statement.
5. For the expressions $2x - 5$ and $2y - 3$, these are simplified linear expressions without equality; they remain as given.
6. The linear equation $3x - 4y = 1$ can be analyzed:
- To find the $y$-intercept, set $x=0$:
$$3(0) - 4y = 1 \Rightarrow -4y = 1 \Rightarrow y = -\frac{1}{4}$$
- To find the $x$-intercept, set $y=0$:
$$3x - 4(0) = 1 \Rightarrow 3x = 1 \Rightarrow x = \frac{1}{3}$$
7. The shaded polygon on the coordinate plane bounded by points approximately at $(3, 2)$, $(1, 3)$, $(3, 6)$, and $(6, 3)$ suggests it is a quadrilateral formed by the intersections of linear constraints.
Final simplified form and intercepts of the linear equation:
- Simplified expression: $3x - 6$
- $y$-intercept of $3x - 4y = 1$ is $\left(0, -\frac{1}{4}\right)$
- $x$-intercept of $3x - 4y = 1$ is $\left(\frac{1}{3}, 0\right)$
