Question 243536: Solve the system of equations by graphing. Then classify the system.
3u+v=6
3u=v+12

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
3u+v=6
3x+y=6
y=-3x+6 (red line)
3u=v+12
3x=y+12
y=3x-12 (green line)
+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-6%2C+5%2C+-15%2C+10%2C+-3x+%2B6%2C+3x+-12%29+ (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -10 to 15, of TWO functions -3x +6 and 3x -12).
These 2 equations are independent (exactly 1 solution).
