Question

Two linear equations are shown.

Answer 1

Answer:

(7, 13/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expressions

y = 1/3x + 2 and the second line y = 4/3x - 5

Equating both expressions

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

1/3x - 4/3x = -5 - 2

-3/3x = -7

-x = -7

x = 7

Substitute x = 7 into any of the equations

Using y = 1/3 x + 2

y = 1/3(7) + 2

y = 7/3 + 2

y = (7+6)/3

y = 13/3

Hence the solution to the system of the equation is (7, 13/3)
