In a field, two paths are represented by \(x+2y=13\) and \(x+y=8\). At which point will the two paths meet?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Point \(\left(3,5\right)\)
Subtracting the second equation from the first gives \(y=5\), then \(x+5=8\) gives \(x=3\). In a real situation, the meeting point is the graphical solution.
