Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem presents two linear equations and asks for the approximate solution to the system of equations by analyzing the graph provided.
The equations given are:
The graph shows the lines representing these equations, and the intersection point of the two lines is the solution to the system of equations. To solve this visually:
- The point where the two lines intersect appears to be close to .
Thus, the approximate solution is:
This matches the second option provided in the multiple-choice answers.
