Question

I am trying to solve this system graphically
-2x+y=-1
3x+y=1
how do I figure this and find the points to graph it?

Answer 1

i just asked the same question! haha

Answer 2

You can put it into slope intercept form, so it'll look like y=2x-1 and y=-3x+1, and then just place some values in for x and solve for y. Like, the y intercept for the first one is -1, because the x = 0, so y = -1. If you do the same for the second one, then the y intercept is 1. So, just place in x = 1, 2, 3, etc, and solve for y by that method. Then just plot your points and see what the graph looks like
