Question

The graph shows a system of equations:

what is the solution to the system of equations

a. (-3,2)
b. (3,-2)
c. (3,2)
d. (-3,-2)

Answer 1

would be c

Explanation:

count how much over then goes how much up until it reaches the point that is marked, so it would be (x,y) so (3,2) x is verticle axis and y is horizontal axis

Answer 2

c. (3, 2)

Explanation:

Equating the values of y :

• -x + 5 = x - 1
• x + x = 5 + 1
• 2x = 6
• x = 3 [x-coordinate of the solution]

Finding y by substituting x in one of the equations :

• y = x - 1
• y = 3 - 1
• y = 2 [y-coordinate of the solution]

Solving :

• Solution = (x, y)
• Solution = (3, 2)
