Question 143504: Would someone be able to help me with this, I appreciate it.
Solve the following system by graphing.
x + y = 6
x - y = 3

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
plot y=6-x and y=x-3 and see the place where they intersect.
graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+6-x%2C+x-3+%29
Looks like y=3/2 and x=9/2.
Check via substitution:

Solve:
+system%28+%0D%0A++++1%5Cx+%2B+1%5Cy+=+6%2C%0D%0A++++1%5Cx+%2B+-1%5Cy+=+3+%29%0D%0A++We'll use substitution. After moving 1*y to the right, we get:
1%2Ax+=+6+-+1%2Ay, or x+=+6%2F1+-+1%2Ay%2F1. Substitute that
into another equation:
1%2A%286%2F1+-+1%2Ay%2F1%29+%2B+-1%5Cy+=+3 and simplify: Error: 'Can't call method "invoke_solver" on an undefined value at /home/ichudov/project_locations/algebra.com/templates/Algebra/Solver/PerlSolver.pm line 115.
