Q12 of 186 Page 3

Solve the following system of equations graphically. Also find the points where the lines intersect x – axis.

2x + 3y = 8


x — 2y = — 3

The given equation is


2x + 3y = 8


and x – 2y = – 3


Now, let us find atleast two solutions of each of the above equations, as shown in the following tables.


Table for



Now, table for




Here, the lines intersecting at point C i.e. (1,2)


The points which intersect at x axis are B (4,0) and E ( – 3,0).
