Answer:
The solution is (2, -1)
The area of the triangle formed is 10 square units.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given system is
[tex]3x+y-5=0\\2x-y-5=0[/tex]
First, you need to graph both lines. To do so, you just need to find the interceptions with both axis.
[tex]3x+y-5=0[/tex]
For [tex]x=0 \implies y=5[/tex]
For [tex]y=0 \implies x=\frac{5}{3}[/tex]
Then, you draw both points to have the straight line.
Repeat the process for the second line. The image attached shows both lines.
Remember, the solution of a linear system of equation is the common point between lines. In this case, we can observe that the solution is (2, -1).
On the other hand, to find the area of the triangle formed, we need to use the length of its base and its height.
- Its base is 10 units long.
- Its height is 2 units long.
Now, we use the area formula for triangles
[tex]A=\frac{bh}{2}=\frac{10(2)}{2}= 10 \ u^{2}[/tex]
Therefore, the area of the triangle formed is 10 square units.
