Question

What is the solution to the system of equations graphed below?

A.(0,-5)
B.(0,-2)
C.(1,-1)
D.(2,0)

Answer 1

C)

Explanation:

Solution of the equation is where the two lines intersects.

So, the two lines intersect at ( 1 , -1)

You can substitute this point in the two equation.

y = x -2

Her plug in x = 1

y = 1 -2

y = -1

Same way,

y = 4x - 5

y = 4*1 - 5

y = 4 - 5

y = -1
