What is the solution for the following system of equations?

Question

  

Answer 1

This system of equations has two linear equations involved. An ordered pair (x,y) that satisfies both equations is called the solution of the system of equations. Such a solution will, therefore, be in the point where the two lines intersect..That intersection point lies on both the lines, and is therefore, a common solution.

In the above examples, you can see the coordinates of the intersection point to be (7, 1)
