Find the ordered pair that makes both the equations below true
1 answer:
Answer:
(3, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Algebraic solution
(1) y = -⅔x + 3
(2) y = 2x - 5
Set Equation (1) equal to Equation (2)
-⅔x + 3 = 2x - 5
Multiply each side by 3
-2x + 9 = 6x - 15
Add 15 to each side
-2x + 24 = 6x
Add 2x to each side
24 = 8x
Divide each side by 3
(3) x = 3
Substitute (3) into (2)
y = 2×3 - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1
The ordered pair that makes both equations true is (3, 1).
(b) Graphical solution
In the diagram below, the red line is the graph of Equation (1). The blue line is the graph of Equation (2). The point of intersection is at (3, 1).

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I've enclosed a graph to show you that there is one solution.
-4x + 3y = - 12
<u>- 2x + 3y = - 18</u><em><u> </u></em><em> </em>Subtract
-2x = 6 Divide by - 2
-2x/-2 = 6/-2
x = - 3
- 4x + 3y = - 12
-4(-3) + 3y = - 12
12 + 3y = - 12
3y = - 12 - 12
3y = - 24
3y/3 = - 24/3
y = - 8
Which is exactly what the graph shows.
You can tell immediately that this has 1 or more solutions just by looking at the number in front of x and y in each each equation.
It's always a good idea to graph a question like this one. Desmos is a pretty good tool to use if you don't have a graphing calculator.
The y's are the same so you are 1/2 way home in saying what you did.
The x's are different so that means you have at least 1 solution.
