Question

solve the following system of equations graphicallyy=x + 3y= - 3/2 x - 7

Answer 1

y = x + 3

y = -3/2x -7

step 1: name your equations

y = x + 3 -------- equation 1

y = -3/2x -7 ----- equation 2

step 2: use a points (0, 0) for both equations

Hence, the points will be (0, 3) and (-3,0) for equation 1

and (0,-7) and (-14/3, 0)

From the graph,

the point of intersection is x = - 4 and y = -1
