Question

Which of the following is a solution for the system y = -3x + 5 and y = 2x + 5?

Answer 1

Answers

(1, 7)

(5, 0)

(2, -1)

(0, 5)

Answer 2

Okay so here we have
y = -3x + 5
y = 2x + 5

Now if y equals both of them then both equal themselves! :D

So
-3x + 5 = 2x + 5

Now find the value of x first! :D
And then put the value of x into anyone of the equations to get the value of y! :D

Understood? :)

Answer 3

i don't really understand, I've read your explanation about 5 times lol...

Answer 4

Hahaha....No Probs! :D

Okay look
we are given
y = -3x + 5
y = 2x + 5

So that means if
a=b
a=c

Then b=c ['a' forms a link]

So if

y = -3x + 5
y = 2x + 5

Then -3x + 5 = 2x + 5
5x = 5-5
x = 0/5 = 0

Substitute this x's value in the [Let's say] The first equation..

y = -3x + 5 = -3(0) + 5 = 0+5 = 5

So x=0,y=5

Their intersection point would be (x,y) = (0,5)

Getting anywhere? :D
