Answer:

x=26

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3(x-2)=1/5(x+4)+2

x-2=3/5x+42/5

5x-10=3x+42

5x-3x-10=42

5x-3=42+10

2x=42+10

2x=52

x=26

Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two lines on the graph representing the system of equations.

First line passes through two points (-3, 1) and (-2, 3).

Slope of the line = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

                           = \frac{3-1}{-2+3}

                       m = 2

Equation of the line passing through (x', y') and slope = m is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

Equation of the line passing through (-3, 1) and slope = 2 will be,

y - 1 = 2(x + 3)

y = 2x + 7 ----------(1)

Second line passes through (0, 1) and (-1, 4) and y-intercept 'b' of the line is 1.

Let the equation of this line is,

y = mx + b

Slope 'm' = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

               = \frac{4-1}{-1-0}

               = -3

Here 'b' = 1

Therefore, equation of the line will be,

y = -3x + 1 ---------(2)

From equation (1) and (2),

2x + 7 = -3x + 1

5x = -6

x = -\frac{6}{5}

x = -1\frac{1}{5}

From equation (1),

y = 2x + 7

y = -\frac{12}{5}+7

  = \frac{-12+35}{5}

  = \frac{23}{5}

  = 4\frac{3}{5}

Therefore, exact solution of the system of equations is (-1\frac{1}{5},4\frac{3}{5}).

Option (B) will be the answer.
