You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2x + y = 4
x + y = 3
First out both equations in slope-intercept form;
y=-2x+4
y=-x+3
Now for the first line, your y-intercept is 4 and slope is -2%2F1, so from the point (0,4) you will move down 2 and to the right 1, that will be your next point(1,2)
For the second line your y-intercept is3 and slope is -1%2F1, so from the point (0,3) you will move down 1 and over 1, that is your next point (1,2)
