The graph shows a coordinate plane that goes from negative 8 to 8 in each direction. The graph also shows two lines that intersect at ( 2 , 3 ). That point is labeled "solution." That's right. When you have two or more linear equations, it is called a "system of linear equations". The solution to a system of linear equations consists of the - and -value that make BOTH equations true. Graphically, this appears as the point where the lines intersect. In this case, the solution is the ordered pair , as shown on the graph. If you are trying to decide whether a system of equations has a solution, would you rather have the equations or the graphs? Why?
