To solve:
The system
Answer to Problem 1CT
Solution:
The required graph is,
The solution of the system of equations is given by
Explanation of Solution
Approach:
To solve a system of equations by graphing, graph each equation in the system and find the coordinates of the point where all of the graphs intersect.
If the graphs have no point in common, the system has no solutions. If the graphs coincide, the system has infinitely many solutions.
Calculation:
Given,
The graphs of the equations are the lines are given by,
From the graph,
The co-ordinates of point where the graphs intersect is
Thus, the solution of equations is
Final statement:
Therefore, the solution of the system of equations is given by
