Example 11. Solve graphically the system of linear equations:
Solution:- Let us take
When
When
When
x | 0 | 3 | -3 |
y | 1.5 | -0.5 | 3.5 |
We plot the point (0, 1.5) (3, -0.5) and (-3, 3.5) on a graph paper and join them which is a straight line.
And 2x +3y = -11
When
When
When
x | -1 | -4 | >2 |
y | -3 | -1 | -5 |
Again we plot the points (-1, -3), (-4, -1) and (2, -5) on the same graph paper and join then we get a straight line which is parallel to previous line. The lines do not intersect and hence we get no solution.
