What is the intersectiοn pοint οf the lines defined by the equatiοns 2x + y = 7 and 3x − 2y = 21?
A. (5, −3)
B. (-5, 3)
C. (5, 3)
D. (-5, -3)
E. (4, 5)
To find the point of intersection, equate the \(x\) or \(y\) in both the equations
\(7 - 2x = \frac{(3x - 21)}{2}\)
\(14 - 4x = 3x - 21\)
\(7x = 35\)
\(x = 5\)
So, \(y = 7 - 2(5) = -3\)
Hence, option A
What is the use of the graph, I don't get it though!
