6. Graphical Solutions
- Plot lines such as y = 2x + 1 and y = -x + 4 on the same graph.
- Their intersection is the solution to the system of equations.
- **Inequality Example**: y > 2x + 1 is graphed with a dashed line and shaded above.
7. Quadratic Functions and Graphs
- **Standard form**: y = ax² + bx + c
- Axis of symmetry: x = -b/2a
- Vertex: plug x = -b/2a into the equation to find y.
- **Example**: y = x² - 4x + 3 → axis: x = 2, vertex: (2, -1)
