Question

Do you think the drummer boy regretted his desicion to become part of the army once he begins to realize what war us like?​

Answer 1

For this case we have the following system of equations:

y = -0.25x + 4.7 y = 4.9x-1.64y=−0.25x+4.7y=4.9x−1.64

When solving the problem graphically we must take into account the following:

1) The solution of the system of equations is given by the intersection of both functions.

2) The solution is an ordered pair of the form (x, y)

For this case we observe that the solution is given by:

(x, y) = (1.23, 4.39)(x,y)=(1.23,4.39)

Note: see attached image.

Answer:

The approximate solution to the system is (1.23, 4.39)
