The graph below shows a system of equations: Draw a line labeled y equals minus x plus 5 by joining the ordered pairs 0, 5 and 5, 0. Draw a line labeled y equals x minus 1 The x-coordinate of the solution to the system of equations is ___ . (5 points)

Respuesta :

Answer:

The x-coordinate of the solution is x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]y=-x+5[/tex] ------> equation A

[tex]y=x-1[/tex] ------> equation B

Solve the system of equations by substitution

Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for x

[tex]x-1=-x+5[/tex]

[tex]x+x=5+1[/tex]

[tex]2x=6[/tex]

[tex]x=3[/tex]

Find the value of y

[tex]y=x-1[/tex]  ------> [tex]y=3-1=2[/tex]

The solution of the system of equations is the point (3,2)

therefore

The x-coordinate of the solution is x=3

Answer:

x = 3
