Question

Daniel and Sofia both solve this system of equations:


y=−1.5x+5.7
y=0.5x+0.3

Daniel's solution is (1.1,2.4). Sofia's solution is (2.7,1.65). They graph the equations to check their work.

Based on the graph, whose solution is more likely to be correct?

Answer 1

You, too, can read the graph and determine that the second selection is appropriate. Or, you can graph it yourself and determine the (one) correct solution.
