Algebra Examples

x + y = - 2

$x + y = - 2$

y = 5 x + 4

$y = 5 x + 4$

Step 1

Subtract

x

$x$ from both sides of the equation.

y = - 2 - x

$y = - 2 - x$

y = 5 x + 4

$y = 5 x + 4$

Step 2

Create a graph to locate the intersection of the equations. The intersection of the system of equations is the solution.

(- 1, - 1)

$(- 1, - 1)$
