A system of linear equations includes the line that is created by the equation y = 0.5 x minus 1 and the line through the points (3, 1) and (–5, –7), shown below. On a coordinate plane, points are at (negative 5, negative 7) and (3, 1). What is the solution to the system of equations? (–6, –4) (0, –1) (0, –2) (2, 0)

Respuesta :

Answer:

(2,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information the first equation is y = 0.5 x  - 1 and the the line through (3,1) and (-5,-7) is  

y = x - 2  .   From those two equations you get

x - 2 = 0.5 x -1     and     x = 2  , y = 0.  So  it is the last point.   (2,0)
