Back to board Answer x + y = y x x + 2y = 14 y = x + 7 y = 3x - 10 x – y = 2 Use the graphs shown to solve the simultaneous equations x - y = 2 and y = 3x - 10

Back to board Explain? x + y = y x x + 2y = 14 y = x + 7 y = 3x - 10 x – y = 2 x = 4, y = Use the graphs shown to solve the simultaneous equations x - y = 2 and y = 3x - 10

Back to board x + y = y x x + 2y = 14 y = x + 7 y = 3x - 10 x – y = 2 The solutions are the co-ordinates of intersection of both graphs. (4, 2) Use the graphs shown to solve the simultaneous equations x - y = 2 and y = 3x - 10 x = 4, y = 2
