To estimate the solution to the system of linear equations based on the graph, we need to find the point of intersection of the two lines.
The given equations are:
y = -2x + 3 ...(1)
y = 5x - 4 ...(2)
To find the point of intersection, we need to equate the y-values in both equations.
-2x + 3 = 5x - 4
Bringing all the x-terms to one side and all the constant terms to the other side, we get:
-2x - 5x = -4 - 3
-7x = -7
Dividing both sides by -7, we get:
x = 1
Substituting the value of x = 1 into equation (1), we can find the value of y:
y = -2(1) + 3
y = -2 + 3
y = 1
Therefore, the estimated solution to the system of linear equations based on the graph is (1, 1).
So, the correct option is: D. (1, 1)
