Is the point (21) a solution to the equations; y = -1/4x + 3/2 and y=-x+ 3? Show your work.

Answer 1

yes

Explanation:

youre trying to find when -1/4x + 3/2 = -x+ 3

so if you set it up like that and then solve for x you get 2

then, you know that 2 is your x value so just plug in x into one of the equations to get the y value

(i used -x+3 bc its easier)

-2+3=y

y= 1

so your solution is (2,1)
