Solving Systems of Linear Equations by Graphing

This video tutorial explains how to solve a system of linear equations by graphing. It covers the process of converting equations into y-intercept form, graphing each line, and finding their intersection point. The tutorial also verifies the solution by substituting the intersection point back into the original equations.

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

• Add the equations together

• Solve for y in each equation

• Multiply the equations by a constant

• Find the intersection point
