Math Problem Statement

Which of the points labeled shows the solution to the system of equations? (A, B, C, D, or E)

Solution

To solve this question, you are asked to find the solution to a system of equations by identifying the point where the lines intersect on the graph.

The solution to a system of equations is the point where the lines intersect. By looking at the image, we can observe that the two lines intersect at point B.

Thus, the correct answer is B, which represents the point where both lines meet.

Would you like a more detailed explanation, or do you have any questions?

Here are five related questions:

  1. How do you graphically solve a system of equations?
  2. Why is the intersection point of two lines the solution to the system?
  3. Can a system of linear equations have more than one solution?
  4. What happens if the lines are parallel in a system of equations?
  5. How can you verify the solution algebraically after finding the intersection point?

Tip: When solving systems of equations graphically, always check that the scales on both axes are consistent to avoid errors when interpreting the graph.
