Question

what is the solution to the system of equations? y = –5x 3 y = 1 a). (0.4, 1) b). (0.8, 1) c). (1, 0.4) d). (1, 0.8)

Answer 1

the answer is letter
a

Answer 2

(0.4,1)

Explanation:

Given :
`y = -5x+3`

`y = 1`

To Find: what is the solution to the system of equations?

Solution:

`y = -5x+3` --1

`y = 1` --2

Substitute the value of y from 2 in 1

`1 = -5x+3`

`1 -3= -5x`

`-2= -5x`

`(-2)/(-5)=x`

`(2)/(5)=x`

`0.4=x`

Thus the solution is (0.4,1)

Hence the solution to the system of equations is (0.4,1)
