Question

Which ordered pair is the best estimate for the solution of

the system of equations?
y= -2.5x + 6.5
y=x+1


A (1.5,2.5)

B (1.25,2.5)

C (1.75,2.25)

D (1.25,1.75)

Answer 1

Explanation:

1.5 AND 2.5

Answer 2

(1.5, 2.5) is the best approximate solution.

Explanation:

According to the graph, at the point of intersection of these two lines, x is closest to 1.5 and y is simultaneously closest to 2.5.

(1.5, 2.5) is the best approximate solution.
