Question

Which of the following graphs best represents the solution to the pair of equations below? (4 points)


y = −x + 6

y = 2x − 3

Answer 1

Answer:

Graph no. 1 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

note the point of intersection of the lines in the graph, that will be solution.

in the first graph, the coordinate of point of intersection is (3,3).

so, x=3, y=3

now, substitute in the given equations to see whether the values satisfy,

y=-x+6

y=-3=6

y=3

y=2x-3

y=2*3-3

y=6-3

y=3

Therefore, both the equations satisfy for (3,3)

Hence, graph one is the correct representation
