Question

If (x, y) is a solution to the system of equations, what is the value of x? 2x + 1 2 y = 2 1 2 x + 2y = 6 A) 4 17

Answer 1

(1.5, 1.5)

Explanation:

To solve the system of equations, use elimination, substitution, or graphing to find the solution. The solution is the point (x,y) where they intersect.

Graph 2x + 12y = 21 and 2x + 2y = 6.

See attached picture.

The solution is (1.5, 1.5).
