I cant solve this

Question

solve the equation by graphing.

Check your solution.

−2x + 6 = 5x − 1

Answer 1

To solve by graphing, you will graph each side of the equation separately and the intersection point is the solution.

To check this solution, you can solve for x in the above equation:

-2x+6=5x-1

Move all of the x's to one side and all of the constants to the other side (+2x to both sides and +1 to each side)

7=7x

Thus by dividing both sides by 7, you get x = 1. Plugging this into either equation you will get y = 4 so the solution on your graph should be at (1,4)
