---
a=1/2b+4
a-3b=-6
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form:
---
x = a
y = b
---
x - 0.5y = 4
x - 3y = -6
---
copy and paste the above linear system in standard form into this matrix-method solver:

solution:
x = a = 6
y = b = 4
---
graph:
---
x - 0.5y = 4
x - 3y = -6
---
x - 4 = 0.5y
x + 6 = 3y
---
2x - 8 = y
0.33333x + 2 = y
