Topics in Graphical Solution

1

1. Linear Equations in Two Variables

  • A linear equation in two variables has the general form ax+by+c=0.
  • Here x and y are variables, and a, b, c are constants.
  • Its graph is a straight line.
2

2. Graph of a Linear Equation

  • To draw the graph of ax+by+c=0, first make x or y the subject.
  • Then choose at least three suitable values and find the matching values.
  • Write the ordered pairs in a table.
3

3. Reading Unknown Values from a Graph

  • A graph can be used to find missing values in a table.
  • In one example, the value of a found from the graph is 5.
  • In the same example, the value of b found from the graph is -4.
4

4. Finding Points on a Line by Graphing

  • For 2x-3y+12=0, the equation can be written as x=(3y-12)/2.
  • The graph is drawn using points (-6,0), (-3,2), and (0,4).
  • If point (m,-2) lies on the line, then m=-9.
