What is the solution to this system of equations?

x+2y=4
2x-2y=5

a. (3, -5.5)
b. (3, 0.5)
c. no solution
d. indefinitely many solutions

Respuesta :

Answer:

b.  (3, 0.5).

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 4

2x - 2y = 5

Adding the 2 equations eliminates the y:

3x = 9

x = 3

Substitute fro x in the first equation:

3 + 2y = 4

2y = 1

y = 0.5.

Answer:

B (3, 0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 4 => 2y = 4- x

2x - 2y = 5

2x - (4 - x) = 5

2x - 4 + x = 5

3x - 4 = 5

3x = 5 + 4

3x = 9

x = 3.

2 × 3 - 2y = 5

6 - 2y = 5

2y = 6 - 5

2y = 1

y = 0.5

(3, 0.5) is the solution.
