We have
x + y = 5
⇒ x = 5 - y
Thus, we have the following table :
We have 3x - y = 3
⇒ y = 3x - 3
Thus, we have following table :
Fig. 3.22.
When we plot the graph of the given equations, we find that both the lines intersect at the point (2, 3), therefore, x = 3, y = 2 is the solution of the given system of equation.
Represent the following pair of equations graphically and write the coordinates of points where the lines intersect y-axis :
x + 3y = 6
2x - 3y = 12
