Graphing Systems of Equations

Use the following applet to explore Systems of Equations

Graph the lines below using the slope and y-intercept. [math]y = 2x - 4[/math] [math]y = -x + 5[/math] What is the solution to the system? Change the y-intercept of the line [math]y= 2x - 4[/math]. How does this change the solution? Changes the y-intercept of both lines. How does this change the solution? Change the slopes of either equation. How does this effect the solution? Hint: If you are having trouble controlling the sliders, you can click on them and use the left and right arrows on your keyboard.
