Question

What is the solution to the system of equations shown in the graph below?

Answer 1

There are a couples of ways to find the solution to the system of equations:

1. If the equations are provided we can use method of substitution or we can use method of elimination to find the solution to the system of equations.

2. Another method to find the solution to the system of equation is by graphing.

Now, when we graph a system of equations, the point of intersection of the two graphs tell us the solution to the system of equations.

Here as we can see that a pair of equations are plotted already and they intersect at point
`(1,-6)`, where
`x=1` and
`y=-6`.

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is
`(1,-6)` (that is the point of intersection as well).
