Graphing Linear Equations and Systems

The video tutorial explains how to solve a system of linear equations by graphing. It demonstrates graphing two linear equations on the same coordinate plane and interpreting the results. The first equation is converted to slope-intercept form and graphed, followed by the second equation. Both lines are found to be parallel, indicating no solution to the system. The tutorial concludes by explaining that such a system is inconsistent.

What is the first step in solving a system of linear equations by graphing?

• Calculate the determinant of the system.

• Graph both equations on the same coordinate plane.

• Find the solution algebraically.

• Determine the x-intercepts of both equations.

How do you convert the equation -3y + 9x = 18 into slope-intercept form?

• Divide both sides by 9.

• Multiply both sides by 3.

• Subtract 9x from both sides and divide by -3.

• Add 9x to both sides.
