Solve the system by graphing. {y=2x-4 x-2y=13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you graph lines? ^.^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The asnwers that i got for x=2 and for y=-13/2 I'm about to submit any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks@

OpenStudy (anonymous):

graph yes I can.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, could you sketch the graph of y = 2x - 4 on this plane? |dw:1371349689632:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1371349768022:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Awesome ^.^ Now what about the other line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is the one i kidn of had trouble but just a sec.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sigh i have no idea.... :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

better? ^.^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh wait, worse, that's not the correct equation :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\Large y = \frac12x - \frac{13}2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is asking me for x and y i am confused as to how to respond

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There we go ^.^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Of course, You have to graph this line as well, and those two lines will intersect at your answer :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1371350294863:dw| Graph it over your line :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1371350411870:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

great work :) and now, whatever coordinates this point is...|dw:1371350485617:dw| that's your answer. But then again, solving by graphing isn't the most accurate of ways to solve...
