You plug in x+1.75 into the second equation to get 4x-2(x+1.75)=4. Once you simplify and solve that problem for x you should get x = 3.75. Plug the x-value that you got back into one of the equations (y=x+1.75) or (4x-2y=4). Either way your y-value should be 5.5.
Your answer would be A. because (x,y) or (3.75,5.5) in this case

The value of x and y are 3.75 and 5.5 respectively in the system of equations option (A) is correct.

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation one variable is present then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

We have a system of equations:

y = x + 1.75 ...(1)

4x - 2y = 4 ...(2)

By using the substitution method to solve for x and y

From the equation (1) put the value of y in the equation (2), we get:

4x - 2(x+1.75) = 4

4x - 2x - 3.5 = 4  

2x = 7.5                (adding 3.5 on both sides)

x = 3.75                 (divide by 2 on both sides)

Now put the above value in the equation (1), we get:

y = 3.75 + 1.75

y = 5.5

Thus, the value of x and y are 3.75 and 5.5 respectively in the system of equations option (A) is correct.
