Graphing Linear Equations and Systems

The video lesson introduces students to the geometric interpretation of solutions of a linear system. It begins with an overview and instructions for a warm-up and homework check. The lesson then moves to an exploratory challenge where students learn to graph linear systems on a coordinate plane. The teacher guides students through graphing two equations, explaining the significance of their intersections, parallelism, and perpendicularity.
