You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve graphically and check: 2x+y=10
 x-y=2
 ----------------
 Put both in slope intercept form:
 y = -2x + 10
 y = x - 2
 -------------------------
 Plot a couple of points for each one and draw a line thru each pair.
 y = -2x +10
 If x=0, y = 10 giving you point (0,10)
 If x=1, y = 8 giving you point (1,8)
 ------------------------------
 Y = x -2
 If x = 0, y = -2 giving you point (0,-2)
 If x = 1, y = -1 giving you point (1,-1)
 -----------------------------------------------
 
  --------------------------
 Solution: (4,2)
 -----------------------------
