slope and y-intercept

x-intercept and y-intercept

Find the x-intercept for the equation above:
3x - 2y = 12
How do you find the x-intercept?

it is already there:  3

 x = 0 and solve for y

 y = 0 and solve for x
Find the y-intercept for the equation above:
3x - 2y = 12
How do you find the y-intercept?

it is already there:  -2

 x = 0 and solve for y

 y = 0 and solve for x

Solve the following system of equations by

substitution.

y = 2x + 5

4x + y = 17

Solution:

Solve the following system of equations by

linear combination:

 

-30x + 4y = -20

    5x - 4y = -30

Solution:

On your paper,

Solve the following systems of equations by

linear combination:

 

6x + 2y = 2

-3x + 3y = -9
