rebeccaxhawaii · Answer

so you need the x and y intercepts ?

If you're trying to solve for 'x' and 'y' then I suppose you would use the elimination method to find them.

ghostgate · Answer

For instance you have these two equations:
4x − y = −11
2x + 3y = 5
Multiply the bottom equation by 2:
4x - y = -11
2(2x + 3y = 5) -> 4x + 6y = 10)
Now subtract both equations:
4x - 4x = 0, -1y - 6y = -7y, -11 - 10 = -21
Now this is your equation:
-7y = -21
y = 3
Now simply solve the other equation:
4x - 3 = -11
2x + 3(3) = 5 -> 2x + 9 = 5
[1] Add 3 to both sides. [2] Subtract 9 from both sides.
4x = -8
2x = -4
x = -2
So your conclusion:
x = -2 and y = 3
