Plot the graphs of the simultaneous equations 𝑦=2𝑥+7 , 𝑦=2𝑥−4 , and then solve the system.

• There are infinitely many solutions as both equations represent the same line.

• 𝑥 = 1 , 𝑦 = − 2

• 𝑥 = 0 , 𝑦 = 7

• There are no solutions as both equations represent parallel lines.

By plotting the graphs of 3𝑥+2𝑦=10 and 6𝑥+4𝑦=30,determine the pair of 𝑥- and 𝑦-coordinates that satisfies both equations simultaneously

• The point coordinates that satisfy both equations are (5, 5).

• The point coordinates that satisfy both equations are (5, 0).

• The two lines are parallel, so there is no solution.

• The two lines are coincident, so there is an infinite number of solutions.
