I think It's (1,5)

anonymous · Answer

It would be (1,4.9) but dont you round?

texaschic101 · Answer

3.5x = -5x + 12
3.5x + 5x = 12
8.5x = 12
x = 12/8.5
x = 1.411 rounded to nearest hundredth = 1.41

anonymous · Answer

yah i know, so it would stay a one, but what about the 4.9, that would round to a 5. right?

texaschic101 · Answer

so your looking for y too ? Because the x coordinate is (1.41,0)

anonymous · Answer

oh no your right, i thought it was asking for both coordinates. Opps, sorry my bad. So it would be 1, or 1.4?

anonymous · Answer

i think it would be one, because you dont have to round, but it could also be 1.4....idk

texaschic101 · Answer

oops...thats the x intercept...
y = 3.5x
y = 3.5(1.41)
y = 4.935 rounds to 4.94

it is saying to round to the nearest hundredth...so the solution is (1.41,4.94)....and just the x solution is 1.41
