Question

Solve the following system of equations graphically. Also find the points where the lines intersect x – axis.

x + 2y = 5
2x - 3y = -4

Answer 1

The given equation is x + 2y = 5 and 2x – 3y = – 4

Now, let us find atleast two solutions of each of the above equations, as shown in the following tables.

Here, the lines intersecting at point C i.e. (1,2)

The points which intersect the x axis are B (5,0) and E ( – 2,0)
