Just to make sure I did everything right..?
I dont get the solution part
@Ibbutibbu. I dont think I am supposed to put just the x and y.... :(
im confused now sry
no its fine :)
@radar
Did I set the equation right?? did I graph it right??
I am thinking that Equation 1 would be: 2x + 3y = 60 Equation 2 would be x + 5y = 65
yup thats what I wrote :)))
So would the equations be y=-2/3x+20 and y=-1/5x+13 ??
You have 2x + 2y = 60 Is there a certain way you are required to solve the system. Using the elimination method you would get x = 15 and y = 10.
I got the same solution. I have a graph attached, and I dont see the solution. I am supposed to explain it in the context of the graph
As my old eyes can hardly make out the graph, you should get two line that intersect at (15,10)
hmmm thats what I tought.. but I didnt get that. do you know how to zoom in?
Two convenient points to use to draw the line for equation 1: (0,20) and (30,0) Equation 2: (0,13) and (65,0)
Those are intercepts from your two "slope intercept" equations which by the way are correct.
ohhh thank you!!! I see the intersection!!!!!!
Did they provide you the graph paper, or was it part of the problem?
they did
I see the solution OMG
As you can see you need to be sure your lines travel to (15, 10)
Glad to be of help (if I was lol)
you were a HUGE help! Thank you soooooo much!! @radar
Good luck Melodysim with your studies.
hmm oh btw, I have a question. so with graph, as you can see, y coord. goes on with unit of 5, and x goes on with unit of 1.
