You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve the system by graphing
L1)2x+y=4
L2) x+y=3
:
For L1)
Let x=0 and solve for y
2(0)+y=4
y=4
Plot (0,4)
Then let y=0 and solve for x
2x+(0)=4
2x=4
2x/2=4/2
x=2
Plot (2,0)
Connect the dots and you have:
graph%28300%2C200%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C-2x%2B4%29
:
For L2)
Let x=0 and solve for y
(0)+y=3
y=3
Plot (0,3)
Then let y=0
x+0=3
x=3
Plot (3,0)
Connect the dots and you have a second line:
graph%28300%2C200%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C-2x%2B4%2C-x%2B3%29
The lines intersect at (1,2)
Happy Calculating!!!
