Question

Please HElp WAS DUE YESTERDAY this is my last question

here is a system of two linear equations. how do i verify that the solution is (3,4)

Equation A1; y=x+1

Equation A2; y=-2x+10

Answer 1

Look below

Explanation:

To verify that the solution is (3,4) we can plug the numbers back into the equation.

Remember that the solution to a linear equation is represented in the form (x,y). Therefore we plug 3 in for x and 4 in for y.

4=3+1

4=4 Correct!

Now we need to check the second equation

4=-2(3)+10

4=-6+10

4=4 Correct!

Therefore the solution is (3,4)
