Draw the graphs of the following linear equations on the same graph paper.
2x + 3y = 12
x – y = 1
2x + 3y = 12
It can be re-written as,
3y = 12 – 2x
Taking different values of x and obtaining values of y,
At x = 0,
At x = 3,
Thus, the points to be plotted are:
Now, for second equation,
x – y = 1
y = x – 1
Taking different values of x,
At x = 1,
y = 1 – 1= 0
At x = 0,
y = 0 – 1 = -1
Thus, the points to be plotted are
Plotting the points,
