What is the solution to the system

Question

y=10x-3

y=-7x+3

answers from

5/17, 16/17

4/17, 16/19

-5/17, 16/17

3/17, 5/17

Answer 1

my answer is

5/17 or 16/17

Answer 2

Both equations are for straight lines. Two lines can intersect in only one point, so I can't imagine how you got two solutions. Did you work the problem two different ways, and the answers disagreed? It would be really nice if you showed your work.

Now for the bad news:

10x-3 = -7x+3
17x = 6
x = 6/17

no choice matches the solution. Is there a typo somewhere? Since 16/17 appears twice, I suspect that one of them is an error.

Answer 3

I agree with Steve,

I got x = 6/17 , y = 9/17 , which does not match any of the answers given

Answer 4

itsy=-7x+2 not y=-7x+3
