Exploring Graphical Solutions for Systems of Equations

Miss Smith's math tutorial covers solving systems of equations using graphing. The video explains the concept of systems of equations, focusing on graphing as a method to find intersection points. It includes examples of graphing linear equations, converting to slope-intercept form, and unique cases like parallel and overlapping lines. The tutorial prepares viewers for future videos on substitution and elimination methods.

What is the primary goal when solving systems of equations?

• To determine the slope of each equation

• To convert all equations to slope-intercept form

• To graph the equations on a single graph

• To find the values that satisfy both equations
