You can put this solution on YOUR website!
solve the following systems by graphing
x - 2y = 8
3x - 2y = 12
------------
Solve each equation for y:
y=(1/2)x-4
Find two points and draw a line thru them:
If x=0, y=-4
If x=2, y=-3
---------------
y=(3/2)x-6
If x=0, y=-6
If x=2, y=-3

================
Find the point of intersection; that is the solution by graphing.
