-----------------
Coordinates of the vertices?
They're the intersections of the 3 lines.
Solve the pairs of eqns 2 at a time.
----
y - 2x = 1 --> y = 2x + 1
4x + y = 7
Sub for y in the 2nd eqn
4x + (2x+1) = 7
x = 1
y = 3
--> (1,3)
=================
2y - x = -4
4x + 7 = 7
Solve for the intersection.
--------
2y - x = -4
y - 2x = 1
Solve for the 3rd vertex.
