 How do I solve a system of Linear equations using the graphing method?

 2 equations with 2 variables (x & y) each. o Ax + By = C o Dx + Ey = F  Solution of a System – an ordered pair, (x,y) that makes both equations true.

A. (1,4) 1-3(4)= = = -5 *doesn’t work in the 1 st eqn, no need to check the 2 nd. Not a solution. B. (-5,0) -5-3(0)= = -5 -2(-5)+3(0)=10 10=10 Solution

1. Graph each equation on the same coordinate plane. 2. If the lines intersect: The point (ordered pair) where the lines intersect is the solution.
