Answer: x = -2 and y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given a system of equations
2x + 4y =12 ...........(1)
and
x + y = 2 .............(2)
Now to plot them in graph we need to find the points of the above linear equations .
From equation 1 ,we get
So get the points (0,3) and (6,0).
From equation 2 ,we get
So we get the points (0,2) and (2,0).
So after plotting these points we get two lines intersecting at (-2,4).
Therefore our solution is x=-2 and y= 4.
