Solving Systems by Graphing Practice
𝑥𝑥 + 𝑦𝑦 = 4 𝑥𝑥 + 2𝑦𝑦 = 6
1. � 2. �
𝑦𝑦 = 2𝑥𝑥 − 5 8𝑦𝑦 + 4𝑥𝑥 = 24
𝑥𝑥 − 2𝑦𝑦 = 4 𝑥𝑥 − 2𝑦𝑦 + 2 = 0
7. � 8. �
3𝑥𝑥 + 𝑦𝑦 = 5 2𝑥𝑥 + 3𝑦𝑦 + 18 = 0
𝑥𝑥 + 5 = 0 3𝑥𝑥 + 6𝑦𝑦 = 12
9. � 10. �
𝑥𝑥 + 𝑦𝑦 = 2 𝑥𝑥 + 2𝑦𝑦 − 8 = 0
Problems 15 – 18, write and solve a system of equations for each scenario.
15. Your jazz band is selling tickets for a school dance. Student tickets are $8.00 and adult tickets
are $15.00. If you sold 167 tickets for a total revenue of $1630, how many of each ticket did
your band sell?
16. Natalie is planning a summer pool party and needs some fresh fruit. A local fruit stand has
