@Vocaloid
try to estimate what the x and y coordinate of that point are
D.
let's do a quick review of how to read a point on a graph
|dw:1515604772338:dw|
first, we find the x-coordinate by seeing how far to the left or how far to the right the point is
|dw:1515604796173:dw|
it looks like the point is about ~ 2 units to the right of x = 0 so we say that the x-coordinate is about 2
for the y-coordinate, we will see how far down or up it goes compared to y = 0
|dw:1515604860301:dw|
the point looks like it's about 6.5 units below 0 so we say it has a y-coordinate of about -6.5
is anything I said unclear or confusing?
oh no totally get you so far
so A. (2,−6.5) is the best estimate of the solution = your answer
Graph the system of equations on graph paper. {6x + 4y = 24 {2x − 4y = −8 Which statements are true about the solution to the system of equations? Select each correct answer. The ordered pair that is the solution to the system lies in Quadrant I . The ordered pair that is the solution to the system lies in Quadrant IV . The y-coordinate of the solution is 3. The x-coordinate of the solution is 2. The x-coordinate of the solution is 3. The y-coordinate of the solution is −2 .
i think we've done this right ?
yeah I think we got (2,3) for this one
you think ?
the first one and those two ?
I just double checked the math and yes x = 2 and y = 3 in quadrant I
oh ok that's correct
Use a graphing tool to solve the system. {13x + 6y = −30 {x − 2y = −4 Which ordered pair is the best estimate for the solution to the system? A. (−2.5,0.25) B. (−2.5,0.75) C. (0.75,−3.25) D. (−1.25,1.75)
have you tried graphing this yet?
i'm very glad you asked me that question and i'm happy to answer it for you
good, that graph is correct now try estimating what the x/y coordinates for that would be
* for the intersection i mean
i solved it and the answer is D
please check your math again
OK, scratch B and D, it's either A or C so it's A
when you have obtained your solution please check if x and y are the correct value by plugging them back into the equation
oh ok
you cannot just eliminate answers randomly, you have to do the graphing/calculations
ok, that's my mistakes it's B i just graphed and it shows B cause the point is on where it shows on the problem
good, B is correct
I need to get going, might be on later tonight
