7 - 1 : SOLVING SYSTEMS BY GRAPHING

Lesson Objectives:

• Solve systems by graphing

• Analyze special types of systems

Two or more linear equations together form a system of linear equations. One way to solve a system of

linear equations is by graphing each equation. Look for any point common to all the lines. Any ordered

pair in a system that makes all the equations true is a solution of the system of linear equations.

EXAMPLE 1: SOLVING A SYSTEM OF EQUATIONS

1. Solve by graphing.

y = 2x - 3

y = x - 1

Solve by graphing.

2. y = 4x - 2 3. y = 3x + 2

y = - 3x + 5 2x + y = - 8

EXAMPLE 2: REAL-WORLD PROBLEM SOLVING

4. Suppose you are testing two fertilizers on bamboo plants A and B, which are growing under identical

conditions. Plant A is 6 cm tall and growing at a rate of 4 cm/day. Plant B is 10 cm tall and growing at a

rate of 2 cm/day. Write a system of equations that models the height of each plant H(d) as a function of

days d.

EXAMPLE 3: INTERPRETING SOLUTIONS

5. Find the solution to the system in #4. What does the solution mean in terms of the original situation?

6. Two friends are walking around a quarter-mile track. One person has completed six laps before the

second one starts. The system below models the distance d(t) in miles each walker covers as a function

of time t in hours.

d(t) = 3t + 1.5 d(t) = 4t

a) Find the solution of the system by graphing. (Hint: use units of 0.5 on your graph)

b) What does the solution mean in terms of the original situation?
