Directions say to Graph the linear System and estimate the solution. Then Check the solution algebraically. the problem is:
\n" ); document.write( "2x+y=13
\n" ); document.write( "5x-2y=1.
\n" ); document.write( "please break it down to to step by step on how to graph and estimate the solution.
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Write each equation in slope-intercept form to get:
\n" ); document.write( "y = -2x+13
\n" ); document.write( "y = (5/2)x -(1/2)
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Graph the two lines and estimate the solution:
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28400%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C-2x%2B13%2C%285%2F2%29x-%3B%281%2F2%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Your estimate might be (3,4)
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Check that solution in each of the equations:
\n" ); document.write( "4 = -2*3+13 = -6+13 = 7 ; you would need to adjust your estimate.---------------
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "4 = (5/2)3 - (1/2) = 7.5-0.5 = 7 ; you would need to adjust your extimate.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "The actual solution is (3,7)
\n" ); document.write( "If you had estimated the solution to be (3,7) the checking process
\n" ); document.write( "would have shown you were correct.
\n" ); document.write( "====================================
