, which means that the given statement is false.
False
5x + 60y = 35
x +y = 1.5 : rewrite as x = 1.5-y and substitute this formula for x in the first one:
5(1.5-y) + 60y = 35
distribute:
7.5 - 5y + 60y = 35
combine like terms:
7.5 + 55y = 35
subtract 7.5 from both sides:
55y = 27.5
divide both sides by 55 to solve for y
y = 27.5 / 55 = 0.5
now substiute 0.5 for y in the 2nd equation:
x + 0.5 = 1.5
x = 1.5 - 0.5 = 1

For this case we have the following system of equations:
When solving the problem graphically we must take into account the following:
1) The solution of the system of equations is given by the intersection of both functions.
2) The solution is an ordered pair of the form (x, y)
For this case we observe that the solution is given by:
Note: see attached image.
