The solution will be either an ordered pair or point (where the lines intersect), all points if the lines are the same, or no solution if the lines are parallel. You need to first solve both equations for y. They become and . Substitute some values of x that you choose into each equation to determine some ordered pairs and plot them, then draw your lines. From the following graph, you see the solution is (1,1):
