We plot the points (0, 4) and (4, 0) on the same graph paper and join these points by a ruler to get the line which is the graph of the equation 2x + 2y = 8.
From graph, we see that the lines represented by the equations (1) and (2) are parallel.
Draw graph of the following linear equations on the same axes
(i) x + y = 3
(ii) 3x – 2y = 4
Also shade the region formed by their graphs and y-axis.
