solve the system by graphing, which is one of the few equations I do not understand.
y=2x-5
Plot two points: (0,-5) and (1,-3)
Draw a line thru them to get:
graph%28400%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C2x-5%29
--------------------------------
y+3 over 4x-6 = 0
(y+3)/(4x-6) = 0
y+3 = 0
y = -3
Plot two points: (0,-3) and (1,-3)
Dray a horizontal line thru those two points to get:
graph%28400%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C-3%29
---------------------------------------
Find the point of intersection of the two lines.
I get (1,-3)
