Question 583090: I have a project due tomorrow. I am to do this equation by substitution and elimination. Then graph the equation. I have done the substitution and elimination. Is there another way that I should do the linear equations to show for the graph?

You can use Gauss-Jordan Row Reduction:

Or you can calculate the determinants and use Cramer's Rule:

As for graphing, just take each of the equations and graph it as you ordinarily would -- just do it on the same set of coordinate axes.
