Answer:
We have the system of equations:
y=1/3x+5
y=2/3x+5
To solve it graphically, we need to graph both lines and see in which point the lines intersect.
You can see the graph below, and you can see that the lines intersect in the point (0, 5)
Now, we can also solve this analytically.
We can use the fact that for the solution, we need y = y.
Then we can write:
(1/3)*x + 5 = (2/3)*x + 5
First, we can subtract 5 in both equations to get:
(1/3)*x = (2/3)*x
This only has a solution when x = 0.
Replacing x = 0 in one of the equations, we get:
y = (1/3)*0 + 5 = 5
Then the solution is x = 0, and y = 5, as we already could see in the graph.
I'm not sure how to give you solid proof, like an equation or something, but you can see that out of the four coordinates, two of them have the y-value of 4 and two of them have the y-value of 2. Also, there is 1.5 in between each x-value that is paired with the same y-value... if that makes sense. So for (0.5, 2) and (3, 2), there is 1.5 in between 0.5 and 3. I hope this helps! Sorry it's a bit of a weird answer
