Question 1: Shown below are the graphs of y = − x + 4 and y = x − 2

(a) Write down the coordinates of the point


where the graphs of y = − x + 4 and
y = x − 2 intersect.

(b) Use your answer to (a) to solve the simultaneous


equations.
y =−x +4
y = x−2

Question 2: Shown below are the graphs of y = 2x + 2 and y = − x − 4

(a) Write down the coordinates of the point


where the graphs of y = 2x + 2 and
y = − x − 4 intersect.

(b) Use your answer to (a) to solve the simultaneous


equations.
y =−x−4
y = 2x + 2

Question 3: Shown below are the graphs of y = x and x − 2y + 4 = 0

Question 4: Shown below are the graphs of 6x + 2y − 9 = 0 and y = 2x − 3

Use the graphs to solve the simultaneous equations

6x + 2y − 9 = 0
y = 2x − 3 .

Question 5: The straight line y + 2x = 4 has been drawn on the grid.

(a) On the same grid, draw the graph of y = x + 1

(b) Use the graphs to solve the simultaneous equations

y + 2x = 4
y = x +1.

Question 6: The straight line y = 2x + 3 has been drawn on the grid.

(a) On the same grid, draw the graph of y = − 3x + 8

(b) Use the graphs to solve the simultaneous equations

y = 2x + 3
y = − 3x + 8

Question 7: The straight line 3x + y = 8 has been drawn on the grid.

(a) On the same grid, draw the graph of x + y = 9

(b) Use the graphs to solve the simultaneous equations

3x + y = 8
x +y =9

Question 8: By drawing the graphs of y = 3x + 1 and x + y = 7

Solve the simultaneous equations


y = 3x + 1
x +y =7

Question 9: By drawing the graphs of y = 3x + 5 and x − 2y + 6 = 0

Solve the simultaneous equations


y = 3x + 5
x − 2y + 6 = 0
