Question 60342: Solve the system of equation by graphing.
1.)
-7x + y = -8
-3x + y = -12

-7x + y = -8 [Re-write in the slope-intercept form by solving for y]
y=7x-8
The y-intercept =(0, -8)
The x-intercept =(8/7, 0)
The slope = 7
.
-3x + y = -12 [Re-write in the slope-intercept form by solving for y]
y=3x-12
The y-intercept = (0, -12)
The x-intercept =(4, 0)
.
