Question

On your own paper, graph the system of equations and identify the solution.=2−4=−1/2+1

Answer 1

• Equation 1:, y = 2x - 4

• Equation 2: ,y = -1/2 x + 1

Choosing point ( 2, 0 ) -where the equations intersect-:

• Equation 1:

$y=2x-4$

$\begin{gathered} 0=2\cdot2-4 \\ 0=4-4 \\ 0=0 \end{gathered}$

• Equation 2:

$y=-\frac{1}{2}x+1$

$\begin{gathered} 0=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot2+1 \\ 0=-\frac{2}{2}+1 \\ 0=-1+1 \\ 0=0 \end{gathered}$

Answer: ( 2, 0 )
