What is the best approximation of the solution to the equations that these two lines represent? (Points : 1) (0, 1) (1, 1) (1.5, 1) (1, 1.5)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

look at the given graph, do the lines cross each other at some point ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes they do meet

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

where do they meet ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

like, what are the coordinates of meeting point ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4,2

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

not quite, notice each grid represents 1 unit in the graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ah jeez I looked at the graph wrong! lol umm 1, 1.5

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Thats right ! meeting point is the solution to system of equations because that point falls on both the lines

lol, Thank You sooooo much for all your help! now I can go lay in my comfy bed. I'm so tired I have been up since 8:30 AM

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Night! have horrible geometry dreams ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh noooooo I don't want to have horrible geometry dreams!! :O I hope I dream of meeting one of my favorite singers from my favorite bands! lol

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

I see you prefer music to geometry hahaha! have good sleep lol must be very late over thr
