Question
Solve the following equations graphically $:\ x+ 2y - 7 = 0;2x - y - 4 = 0$

Answer

$x+ 2y - 7 = 0........(1)$
$2x - y - 4 = 0.......(2)$
$x+ 2y - 7 = 0$
$\Rightarrow x = 7 - 2y$
Corresponding values of $x$ and $y$ can be tabulated as :
$x$ $7$ $3$ $1$
$y$ $0$ $2$ $3$
Plotting points $(7, 0), (3, 2), (1, 3)$ and joining them, we get a line $l_1$ which is the graph of equation $(1).$
$2x - y - 4$
$\Rightarrow y = 2x - 4$
Corresponding values of $x$ and $y$ can be tabulated as $:$
$x$ $0$ $3$ $2$
$y$ $-4$ $2$ $0$
Plotting points $(0, -4), (3, 2), (2, 0)$ and joining them, we get a line $l_2$ which is the graph of equation $(2).$

The lines $l_1$​​​​​​​ and $l_2$​​​​​​​ intersect at a unique point $(3, 2).$
