12 Here are two equations.

y = 5x - 9 and x + y = 7
a Use this graph to find an
approximate solution of
the equations.
b Use algebra to find exact
solutions of the equations,
Helpppp

Answer:x=8/3 ; y=13/3

Step-by-step explanation: to find the intersection point or the solution of the graph, you need to equate these equations 1) y=5x-9 2) x+y=7 => y=7-x x equating the equations 5x-9=7-x => 6x=16 => x=8/3 ; y=13/3
