Plot the graphs of the given system of linear equations. 

The first equation is x + y = 4 

y = 4 − x 

The following table lists the corresponding values of x and y for the equation x + y = 4: 

x 

y = 4 − x 

The second equation is 2x − 3y = 3 y=2x33 

The following table lists the corresponding values of x and y for the equation 2x − 3y = 3: 

x 

y=2x33 

−3 

−3 

−1 

The graph representing the two equations can be plotted as:

As seen in the graph, the two lines intersect at (3, 1). This implies that x = 3 and y = 1 is the solution of the two equations.
