To find the solution to a system of equations graphically, you can follow these steps:
1. Plot the graphs of each equation on the same coordinate system.
- For example, if you have a system of two linear equations, you would plot the lines that represent each equation.
2. Identify the point or points where the graphs intersect.
- The intersection points represent the solutions to the system of equations.
3. Read the coordinates of the intersection point(s).
- The x-coordinate and y-coordinate of the intersection point(s) give you the solution(s) to the system of equations.
Note: If the graphs do not intersect, it means there is no solution to the system of equations. If the graphs coincide (i.e., they are the same line), it means there are infinitely many solutions to the system of equations.
