The solution to a system of two linear equations is x = 3 weeks; y = 9 feet
Match the description with the correct statement.
The still to this system could possibly have this meaning
A: making the lines parallel to each other
B: from the origin, find the y-intercepts and subtract them
C: no way to have them linear graphs with 2 or 3 intersecting points
D: curving the lines around so that they cross multiple times
E: the point where the lines cross the y-axis after 3 weeks
F: the point where the 9 foot plant stopped growing for 3 weeks
G: the point showing after 3 weeks, the plant was 9 feet tall
H: find the point where the two lines cross; (3,9)
E: the point where the lines cross the y-axis after 3 weeks
G: the point showing after 3 weeks, the plant was 9 feet tall
H: find the point where the two lines cross; (3,9)
The correct match is:
H: find the point where the two lines cross; (3,9)
The correct match would be:
H: find the point where the two lines cross; (3,9)
To solve a system of two linear equations, you need to find the point where the two lines intersect. In this case, the solution to the system is represented by the point (x,y) = (3,9). This means that after 3 weeks, the plant was 9 feet tall, as indicated by the y-value of the solution. Hence, the correct description to match with the statement is "the point showing after 3 weeks, the plant was 9 feet tall."
