  • Solving systems of equations by graphing

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define systems

2x + 5y = 15

8x + 4y = 8

Step 2: Rewrite systems

8x + 4y = 8

  1. Subtract 8x on both sides:                    4y = 8 - 8x
  2. Divide 4 on both sides:                         y = 2 - 2x

Step 3: Redefine systems

2x + 5y = 15

y = 2 - 2x

Step 4: Solve for x

Substitution

  1. Substitute in y:                    2x + 5(2 - 2x) = 15
  2. Distribute 5:                         2x + 10 - 10x = 15
  3. Combine like terms:           -8x + 10 = 15
  4. Isolate x term:                     -8x = 5
  5. Isolate x:                              x = -5/8

Step 5: Solve for y

  1. Define original equation:                    2x + 5y = 15
  2. Substitute in x:                                     2(-5/8) + 5y = 15
  3. Multiply:                                                -10/8 + 5y = 15
  4. Simplify:                                                -5/4 + 5y = 15
  5. Isolate y term:                                      5y = 65/4
  6. Isolate y:                                               y = 13/4

Step 6: Graph systems

Check the solution set.

The solution set is equivalent (is in decimal form).
