Q13 of 186 Page 3

Solve the following system of equations graphically. Also find the points where the lines meet the y – axis.

3x + y — 5 = 0


2x — y — 5 = 0

The given equation is


3x + y = 5


and 2x – y = 5


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


Table for 3x + y = 5 or y = 5 – 3x



Now, table for 2x – y = 5 or y = 2x + 5




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


The point which is intersect at y axis are A (0,5) and D (0, – 5)
