Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 8.71 Solving Systems of Equations by Graphing skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Hard
Line 1 passes through (-3, 2/5) and (-2, 7/5). Line 2: 5x + 5y = 9. A student guessed that the solution is (1/5, 18/5). Which answer choice gives the actual intersection?
A(1/5, 18/5)
B(-9/5, 8/5)
C(6/5, 23/5)
D(-4/5, 13/5)
Solution & Explanation:The guessed point (1/5, 18/5) is on one line, but not on the other. Plot the given points or intercepts for each line and extend the lines. The crossing point is (-4/5, 13/5), so that ordered pair is the solution.
Problem 2Difficulty: Hard
Line M: y - 3/2 = (2/3)(x + 1). Line N: y = -(1/3)x + 17/3. Find the point shared by both graphs.
A(13/2, 13/2)
B(1/2, 5/2)
C(7/2, 9/2)
D(19/2, 17/2)
Solution & Explanation:The solution to a system is the point where both lines have the same y-value for the same x-value. For y = (2/3)x + 13/6 and y = -(1/3)x + 17/3, that happens at x = 7/2 and y = 9/2, so the intersection is (7/2, 9/2).
Problem 3Difficulty: Hard
True or False: (7/5, 4/5) lies on both graphs. First line crosses the x-axis at (3, 0) and the y-axis at (0, 3/2). Second line: y - 3 = (3/4)(x - 1).
ATrue
BFalse
Solution & Explanation:False. (7/5, 4/5) is not the shared point of the two graphs. The correct solution is (-3/5, 9/5).
