Graphs of Functions II

CHAPTER 11: GRAPHS OF FUNCTIONS II
Steps involved in solving an equation graphically:
1. Find the y value by substituting x value into the given function.
2. Draw the graph by using the given scale for x-axis and y- axis.
3. Find the value of y or x when given value of x or y from the graph.
4. On the same axes, draw a suitable straight line which satisfies the equation.
5. Determine the solutions by reading off the x-coordinates of the point of

intersection of the two graphs.
