Question

PLEASE HELP ME

A system of linear equations is graphed.

Which ordered pair is the best estimate for the solution to the system?
(1/2, 1)


(1, 1)


(0, 1/2)


(1/2, 0)

Answer 1

(1/2, 0)

Explanation:

The solution to a system of equations graphically is where they intersect on the graph. In a coordinate, the x is first and the y is second. Where our lines cross is ON the x-axis. This means that y = 0 here. Because we are to the right of the origin, we are in positive x values. Because we are between x = 0 and x = 1, the best estimate from our choices is x = 1/2. The coordinate for the solution is best represented by (1/2, 0)
