Chapter 8.8, Problem 3E

To determine

To solve:

The given linear system of equations by graphing.

Answer to Problem 3E

The solution for given system of equations would be $(3,1)$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

A system of equations:

  $\begin{array}{l}y=3x-8\\ y=2x-5\end{array}$

Calculation:

First of all, we will graph our given system of equations. We can see that both equations are in slope-intercept form.

Upon graphing both equations, we will get our required graph as shown below:

  

Upon looking at our graph, we can see that both lines intersect at point $(3,1)$ . Therefore, the solution for given system of equationswould be $(3,1)$ .
