Question

solve the system of equations below by graphing both equations with a pencil and paper, what is the solution? y= -x-1 y=x+3

Answer 1

(-2, 1)

Explanation:

Well, to actually graph it, for the first line you'd have one point at (0, -1) [0 right, 1 down] , then you go down one, right one, and place a point there, down another, right another, and repeat.

For the second you'd place a point on (0, 3) [0 right, 3 up] and then go one up, one right, and place a point. One up, one right and place a point and repeat that. the point where the two lines cross would be your answer. If you don't want to do that then the answer is (-2, 1) I believe.
