What method do you use ? What about a graphing cal ?

You can actually suppose values of x and get values of guy graph the equation of the line.

Then use the other equation and graph a equation of that line and the place where they meet is your answer.

i was hoping someone could take me through step by step so I could better under it?

understand*

anonymous · Answer

ok so for 2x-y=0, I got (0,0) (1,2) and for 5x+y=7 I got (0,7) (-7/5, 0)… am i totally off?

Thanks so much! I wish there was a graph on here so I could actually show you want my lines look like. 
If x = 0, then:

so the the line passes through origin (0, 0).

and 1,2 would be the line that it passes through? Dont mean to make it confusing here

anonymous · Answer

So my ordered pairs would be (0,0) & (-7/5,0) ??
