Question

What is the solution to the system of equations? (5, 0) (0, 5) (0, –5) (–5, 0)

Answer 1

The correct answer is

`(0,-5)`

Step-by-step explanation

The graph of two straight lines are drawn on the same graph sheet.

The point of intersection of these two straight lines is the solution to the system of equations the two lines represent.

Reading from the graph, the two straight lines meet at their y-intercept.

The coordinate of their point of intersection is

`(0,-5)`

Meaning that,

`x=0`

and

`y=-5`

Therefore the solution to the system of equations is

`(0,-5)`

The correct answer is C.

Answer 2

The solution is where both lines meet. (0, -5)
