Question 225883: Please help me solve the system graphically. If the system has an infinite # of solutions, use the set builder notation to write the solution set. If the system has no solution, state this. List the point of intersection.

y=-10-2x
x+6y=6

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y=-10-2x
x+6y=6
----------
These are 2 straight lines, so 2 points for each is sufficient.
Pick a value for x and find y for 2 points, then draw a line thru them.
y=-10-2x
--------
x y
0 -10 --> (0,-10)
-5 0 --> (-5,0)
------
Do the same for the other equation.
Where they intersect is the solution.
