Question

which is the best approximate solution of the system of linear equations $y = 1.5x - 1$ and $y = 1$?○ (0.33, 1)○ (1.33, 1)○ (1.83, 1)○ (2.33, 1)

Explanation:

Step1: Set equations equal

$1 = 1.5x - 1$

Step2: Isolate the x-term

$1 + 1 = 1.5x$
$2 = 1.5x$

Step3: Solve for x

$x = \frac{2}{1.5} \approx 1.33$

Answer:

(1.33, 1)
