Example Question and Solution
Solve graphically x - 2y = 1 and x + y = 4, and write down the co-ordinates of the point of intersection of the two lines.
Use grid below. When you click on the arrows you can move and/or rotate them to the correct position.
Plot only 3 points per line.
Answer:
x - 2y = 1
2y = x - 1
y=(x-1)/2
X -3 3 5
y -2 1 2
See RED arrow denoting the linear function and a positive slope

x + y = 4
y = 4 - x
X 0 1 4
y 4 3 0

See BLUE arrow denoting the linear function and a negative slope
The intersection of the two lines has the value of (3,1) which solves BOTH equations.
