Solve the system of equations. (calculator/graph recommended)
{ y = (3/2)x + 7
y = 5x
(10, 2)
(2, 10)
(-10, -2)
(-2, -10)

Answer

To solve the system of equations, set the equations equal to each other:

  1. Equation 1: y = (3/2)x + 7
  2. Equation 2: y = 5x

Set (3/2)x + 7 = 5x:

  1. (3/2)x + 7 = 5x
  2. 7 = 5x - (3/2)x
  3. 7 = (10/2)x - (3/2)x
  4. 7 = (7/2)x
  5. x = 2

Substitute x = 2 back into one of the equations to find y:

  1. y = 5(2) = 10

The solution is (2, 10).
