In this video we're going to start the CUDA software, infinite algebra, 2, free worksheet systems of two equations, and in this section we're going to be solving each system by graphing and number one.

Each of our equations is in the form of y equals, MX plus B, so we'll use our slope and y-intercept in order to graph the lines so for y equals negative 3x plus 4.

Our slope is negative 3, which we can write as negative 3 over 1 for rise over run, and then our y-intercept B is a positive 4.

So we'll start by graphing, our y-intercept 0 4 and then we'll use our rise over run to find that next point so we'll go down: 3 1, 2, 3 and the rise and over 1 in the positive direction.

For the run to the point, 1 1 now we'll connect those points with a line.

So any point that falls on this line is a solution to our first equation.

However, we're solving the system so we're going to also need to graph our next equation for y equals 3x minus 2.

Our slope M is a positive 3, which we can write as 3 over 1 for rise over run and our y-intercept B is a negative 2.

So we'll graph plotting the point, 0 negative 2 for our y-intercept and then using our rise over run, we'll go up 3 and over to the right one to the point, 1 1.

So now that we have two points, we can connect those to form our next line.

Now.

Any point that falls on this line is a solution to that second equation.

However, in order to find a solution to both equations, we need to find a point that falls on both lines and therefore will be that intersection point, which is the point 1 1, so 1 1 is our solution and number 1, and you can double check by plugging 1 in for X in each equation and see if the right-hand sides equal 1 continuing on a number two.

Let's first graph y equals x, plus 2, our slope M is 1, so rise over run will be 1 over 1 and our y-intercept B is equal to a positive 2, so graphing 0 2 and then using our slope to get to that next point rise of 1 run of 1 will be at 1/3.

So then I'll draw a line connecting now it's time to graph that next line x equals negative 3.

So that's going to be a vertical line where X is always negative 3.

So if Y is 5, X is negative.

3 if Y is 1, X is negative 3 if Y is negative, 4 X is negative, 3 and so on.

Now the intersection of those two lines occurs at this point: negative 3, negative 1, so negative, 3 negative 1 is our solution in number 2, plugging negative 3 in for X negative 3 is indeed equal to negative 3 and negative 3 plus 2 does indeed equal a negative 1.

Now moving on to number 3 I want to write each of these in the form of y equals, MX plus B.

So that's easier to graph.

So 4x minus y equal to 3 I'll subtract X from both sides, so you get that negative y equals negative x plus 3.

However, I don't want my Y to be negative, so multiply both sides by a negative 1 or divide both sides by a negative 1, so I'll get that positive.

Y is equal to X minus 3, so my slope, M is 1 which I'll write as rise over run 1 over 1 and my y-intercept B is negative.

3 plotting my y-intercept 0 negative 3 and then using my slope, going up 1 in the Y and over to the right 1 and the X I'll, get to the point.

1 negative, 2 and all I need is two points to form a line.

Now it's time to grasp that next line, 7x minus y equals negative 3.

What I'll do is subtract 7x from both sides, so I'll have negative y equal to negative 7x.

Minus 3 and I'll need to divide both sides by negative 1 in order to get this Y positive, so I'll have positive y equal to positive, 7x, plus a positive 3.

So my slope, M is 7 which will write a 7 over 1 and my y-intercept B is a positive 3, so plotting our point, 0 3 and then using my rise over run.

I'll get to the next point, however, going positive 7 in the Y and positive 1 and the X will take me off the coordinate system.

So I'll write my rise over run as negative 7 over negative 1, because a negative, divided by a negative is still a positive.

Now I'll go down 7 and 1 to the left, to the point negative 1, negative, 4 and then I'll draw my line and where those lines intersect.

That is my answer and that occurs at negative, 1, negative 4, so negative, 1 negative 4 is my solution and number 3.

Lastly, in this video I'm going to go over number 4, however, before I go over the answer to this, don't forget to like this video and subscribe to my channel all likes and subscriptions are greatly appreciated, and they, let me know that you're finding these videos useful so go ahead, and do that now continuing on with number 4 we're going to write each equation in the form of y equals MX plus B.

So our first equation is 4x plus y equals 2, so I'll subtract 4x from both sides to get that y equals negative, 4x plus 2 for our second equation.

X minus y equals positive, 3 I'll subtract X from both sides to get that negative y equals negative, x, plus and then I'll divide or multiply both sides by negative one.

In order to flip this sign, on my left hand, side so I'll get positive y equals positive x minus three.

Now for my first line, my slope M is negative: four, which I'll write as negative four over one for rise over run and my y-intercept B is a positive 2, so plotting 0 2.

My y-intercept of my first line and then using my rise of a run I'll go down for M 1 to the right to get to that next point of 1, negative 2 and then I'll connect those with a line.

Next, looking at the slope of my other equation, M is equal to a positive 1, so rise over run 1 over 1 and my y-intercept B is a negative 3, so I'll plot, 0, negative 3 and then rise over run, moving one up and one to the right or moving one down and one to the left.

If I was to use negative 1 over negative 1, now I'll draw that line, and you can see that my equations intersect at the point 1 negative 2, so 1 negative 2 is my solution in number.

4 again, don't forget to click that like button and subscribe to my channel and share this with somebody that you think will also find it useful continue on to the next video, where we'll start by solving each system by substitution and before continuing on.
