Question 1

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 13.5

y = 7

(13.5,7)

what the solution means is that (13.5,7) would be the point at which the two lines, x+y=20.5 and x-y=6.5, would intersect

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 20.5

x - y = 6.5

if we add the two equations we get:

2x = 27

x = 13.5

y = 20.5 - 13.5

y = 7

solution as an ordered pair:

(13.5,7)

What the solution means is that (13.5,7) would be the point at which the two lines, x+y=20.5 and x-y=6.5, would intersect
