Question

The lines in the graph of part A don't intersect at two whole numbers on the coordinate grid. Estimate the values of the solution to the nearest one-fourth of a unit. Then substitute the x- and y-values of the approximate solution into the two equations. How close do you get to the constant numbers in each equation?

Answer 1

Answer:

The solution lies at approximately (4.25,6.5).

Step-by-step explanation:

The estimate is pretty close for both equations. For the first equation, the estimate results in a value that is only 0.2125 units away from the constant. For the second equation, the estimate results in a value that is only 0.25 units away from the constant.
