Question 250006
Solve each system of inequalities by graphing.
Comment: These are not inequalities.
x+8/3y=12
1/2x+4/3y=5
--------------
Rearrange each equation to get slope-intercept form. 
x+8 = 36y
y = (1/36)x + (2/9)
Plot the points: (0, 2/9) and (36,11/9)
---
3x + 16y = 30
y = (-3/16)x + (15/8)
Plot the points: (0,15/8) and (16,-9/8)
-----------------------------
{{{graph(400,300,-10,40,-5,5,(-3/16)x + (15/8),(1/36)x + (2/9))}}}
===============================================
Ans: x = 7.6774.. y = 0.4355.. when graphed with a calculator.
