y = 3x -2~~~.....(i)\\\\y = 2x-5~~~.....(ii)\\\\\text{Substitute equation (i) in equation (ii):}\\\\3x-2 = 2x -5\\\\\implies 3x -2x = -5+2\\\\\implies x = -3\\\\\text{Substitute}~ x =-3,~ \text{in equation (i):}\\\\y = 3(-3) -2 = -9 -2 = -11\\\\\text{Hence,}~ (x,y) = (-3,-11)

The complete question is

"A data set consists of the following data points: (2,4),(4,7), (5, 12)

The line of best fit has the equation y = 2.5x - 1.5. What does this equation predict for a value of x = 7?

O A. 16

O B. 19

O C. 20.5

O D. 175

0 0 0

a. no. both a and b are incorrect.

b. no. the value for b is incorrect.

c. no. the value for a is incorrect.

d. yes. this is the correct equation."

The  equation predict for a value of x = 7 in equation  y = 2.5x – 1.5  is  (x, y) = (3, 16). Option B is correct.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be solved to get a unique solution. the power of the equation must be in one degree.

"A data set consists of the following data points: (2,4),(4,7), (5, 12)

y = 2.5x - 1.5

Puy x = 7

y = 2.5(7) - 1.5

y = 17.5 - 1.5

y = 16

The  equation predict for a value of x = 7 in equation  y = 2.5x – 1.5  is  (x, y) = (3, 16). Option B is correct.

[y = 4x] [x + y = 5]
alexandr1967 [171]
X=1, y=4

Substitute 4x in for y in the second equation and you get 5x=5. Divide out 5 and you get x=1. Then, you can plug 1 in for x into either equation and solve for y.
