Solving system of equation by graphing

Given the following system of equation

x-y=7

0.5x+y=5

Determine the measure of the variable by graphing. In order to determine that, we will need to check the point where the line intersects on the graph.

The equation x - y = 7 can be written as y = x - 7 while the equation 0.5x+y=5 can be written as y = -0.5x + 5.

Graphing both equations, we will have:
