Line Q is represented by the following equation: 2x + y = 11

Which equation completes the system that is satisfied by the solution (3, 5)?

x + 2y = 15
x + y = 15
x + y = 8
x − y = 2

Respuesta :

hello : the system is : 
2x + y = 11 
x+y =8
because 2(3)+5=11  and: 3+5 = 8

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of line Q is

[tex]2x+y=11[/tex]

We need to find the equation which complete the system that is satisfied by the solution (3,5).  

It means the equation of line must be true for (3,5).

First equation is,

[tex]x+2y=15[/tex]

Check the equation for (3,5).

[tex](3)+2(5)=3+10=13\neq 15[/tex]

It means option A is incorrect.

Similarly check the oher options.

[tex]x+y=15\Rightarrow (3)+(5)=8\neq 15[/tex]

[tex]x+y=8\Rightarrow (3)+(5)=8[/tex]

[tex]x-y=2\Rightarrow (3)-(5)=-2\neq 2[/tex]

Only equation [tex]x+y=8[/tex] is true for (3,5).

Hence the correct option is C.
