Q12 of 186 Page 3

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

x + 2y = 1


x— 2y = 7

The given equation is


x + 2y = 1


and x – 2y = 7


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 B i.e. (4, – 1.5)


The points which intersect the x axis are B (1,0) and E (7,0)
