Systems of Linear Equations in 2 Variables
2x + 4y =8 Equation is in Ax + By =C form
x=1
B =0 … x + 0 y =1
● Plug in y = 0.
● y = -2 is a horizontal line
y cannot = 0 because so y always equals -2.
y = -2. ● (0,-2) is the y-intercept.
● y = -2 is a horizontal
y
Graphing Equations
Graph 4x - 3y = 12
●Solve for y first
4x - 3y =12 Subtract 4x from both sides
-3y = -4x + 12 Divide by -3
y = -4 x + 12 Simplify
-3 -3
y = 4x – 4

●The equation y = 4x - 4 is in slope-intercept form,
y=mx+b. The y -intercept
3 is -4 and the slope is 4.
Graph the line on the coordinate plane. 3
