Question 184303: Please Help:
My question is on Graphing a System of Linear Equations.
The system is:
x + y =6
2y - x = 18
According to my book, The equation x + y = 6 passes through (6,0) and (0,6)
The equation 2y - x = 18 passes through (-18,0) and (0,9)
What I am confused about is how did they come up with -18 for the second equation where they stated that the equation 2y - x = 18 passes through (-18,0) and (0,9)?
I need to know how to get these points with the Graphical Solution Method.
Thank You
