Question

Find the point of intersection of the lines: y = 4x + 1 and y = – 2x + 4 A. (2 , 9) B. ( 1 2, 3 ) C. (1 , 2) D. ( 1 4, 2)

Answer 1

Answer:

B. (1/2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is perhaps easiest to try the point values in the equations.

A — 4·2+1 = 9; -2·2 +4 ≠9 . . . . not the answer

B — 4·1/2 +1 = 3; -2·(1/2) +4 = 3 . . . . this is the answer

we need go no further since we have the answer
