Question

Estimate the solution to the system of these linear equations based on the graph. Y=-x+6 and y=3x-2

Answer 1

Based on the graph of the equations y = -x + 6 and y = 3x - 2, the solution to the system appears to be (2, 4).

To confirm this estimate, we can substitute the x-value (2) into each equation:

For y = -x + 6:
y = -(2) + 6 = 4

For y = 3x - 2:
y = 3(2) - 2 = 4

Both equations give us a y-value of 4, confirming that (2, 4) is the solution to the system of equations.
