Question
Solve graphically the following system of linear equation. Also find the coordinates of the points where the lines meet axis of y.
x + 2y - 7 = 0,
2x - y - 4 = 0.

Answer

We have,
x + 2y - 7 = 0
Now, 2x - y - 4 = 0
x + 2y - 7 = 0
x = 7 - 2y
when, y = 1, x = 5
y = 2, x = 3
x
5
3
y
1
2
Also, 2x - y - 4 = 0
y = 2x - 4
x
2
0
y
0
-4

From the graph, the solution is A(3, 2).
Also, the coordinates of the points where the lines meet the y-axis are B(0, 3, 5) and C(0, -4).
