Answer:

(3,0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system has equations:

7x + 4y = 23 \\ 8x - 10y = 19

Let us multiply the second equation by 4 and the first equation by 10.

70x + 40y = 230 \\ 32x - 40y = 76

We add both new equations to get:

102x = 306 \\ x =  \frac{306}{102}  = 3

Put x=3 into the first equation and solve for y.

7(3) + 4y = 23 \\ 21 + 4y = 23 \\ 4y = 23 - 21 \\ 4y = 2 \\  y =  \frac{1}{2}

The point of intersection is the solution to the system of equation which is (3,0.5)

Since 1/2 is equal to a half, you divide 50 and 40 by 2 and you'll get 25 and 20 and then you subtract 25 and 20 and you get 5 which is the answer!
