Graphing Systems of Linear Equations

The document provides examples of solving systems of linear equations by graphing. It shows the steps to graph lines defined by equations like y = 2x + 9 and y = 6 - x, and find their point of intersection, which is the solution to the system. It provides 3 examples of graphing systems and finding the solutions: (2, 0), (-5, 1), and (-5, -3). It also includes questions asking the reader to determine if a solution is correct based on the graph, write the system of equations from its graph, and determine the number of solutions from a graph.
