Draw the graphs of the lines below on the same grid to find the coordinates of the point of intersection. y + 5 = 2 x y = 7 − 2
1 answer:
Answer:
The point of intersection is (3,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Manipulate these equations to achieve the form of y = mx + c
1) y + 5 = 2x
Y = 2x - 5
2) y = 7 - 2x
Y = -2x + 7
Point of intersection is (3,1) on the graph attached
To check algebraically:
2x - 5 = -2x + 7
4x = 12
X = 3
Substitute to get y
Y = 2x - 5
Y = 2 x 3 - 5
Y = 1
Therefore (3,1)
