Assignment 5
Draw the graphs of the following linear functions:
and determine the intersection point of the lines.
Solution
A quick look at both equations shows that they have equal slopes: and thus the lines are either parallel or coincide. Because the -values are different ( and , respectively), the lines are parallel and thus do not intersect. See the figure, and identify which line corresponds with which equation.
