Question 2

The graph of 2y+4x=62y + 4x = 62y+4x=6 is drawn on the grid.

A coordinate grid with x and y axes ranging from -5 to 5. A straight line is plotted passing through (0, 3) and (1.5, 0).

a.

On the grid, draw the graph of y=x−3y = x - 3y=x−3

[2]
b.

Use the graphs to solve the simultaneous equations

2y+4x=6y=x−3 \begin{aligned} 2y + 4x &= 6 \\ y &= x - 3 \end{aligned} 2y+4xy​=6=x−3​

x=………x = \dots\dots\dotsx=………

y=………y = \dots\dots\dotsy=………
