If you do not remember the slope and y-int way of graphing lines, try plotting a few points.

jamierox4ev3r · Answer

you would put one point on 4 and then move your pencil one box to the left, and four boxes down. Then, draw another point. Then, at that point, you would place a ruler between the two points and draw you slope

cruffo · Answer

that sounds about right for the first line.

Ok I have them graphed

the solution of a system of equations is where the 2 equations graph meet
in this case they're 2 lines, so where the lines cross each other, at THAT POINT, "x" and "y" for both equations are the same value,thus the solution
