Solve the following pair of equations graphically.
2x - 3y = 1
1.25 x + 0.5y = 3
:
Put both equations in the slope intercept form; y = mx + b
-3y = -2x + 1
divide both sides by -3
y = x -
and
.5y = -1.25x + 3
divide both sides by .5
y = -2.5x + 6
:
Plot these two equations on your device

looks like x=2, y=1 is the solution, checks out in both equations
