how would i solve the equation x=2y using graphing?
this is the question i meant to ask
-----------
x = 2y is solved for x
--> y = x/2 when solved for y
----------
If you graph it, it's a straight line and every point on it (an infinite number of them) is a solution.
There is no unique solution.
If you have 2 variables, you need 2 independent equations.
