Q1.
Fill in the gaps: We can use ____ to solve simultaneous equations.
Knowledge
Numbers
Terms
Q2.
What are the coordinates of the points of intersection for y = x + 5 and y = -2x - 1?
(-2, -3)
(2, -3)
(2, 3)
Q3.
Use a graph to solve y = x + 5 and y = -2x - 1 simultaneously.
x = -2, y = -3
x = 2, y = -3
x = 2, y = 3
Q4.
Create equations for the following statements: "I'm thinking of 2 numbers that have a sum of 3", "I'm thinking of 2 numbers. I triple the first number and add the second to get -1".
x + y = 3, 2x + y = -1
y = -x + 3, y = 3x - 1
y = x + 3, y = 3x - 1
Q5.
Find the values of x and y that are true for both of the following statements: "I'm thinking of 2 numbers that have a sum of 3", "I'm thinking of 2 numbers. I triple the first number and add the second to get -1".
x = -2, y = -5
x = 2, y = -5
x = 2, y = 5

Q2.
Which of the following equations do not have solutions when solved simultaneously?

Q3.
Which of the following equations have a solution where the x coordinate is negative?
x - 2y = 6, y = 5 - 3x
y = 2x + 4, y = 5 - 3x
y = 5 - 3x, y = - 4
Q4.
Which of the following equations have a solution where both the coordinates are negative?
x - 2y = 6, y = 5 - 3x
