first write the equation in the form of y=mx+b example if the question is 2y=4x-2 write it as y=2x-1
B is the y intercept so place it on the y axis. example on the above equation the y intercept is -1.
and write the slop(m) s form of fraction like 2/1
at last count two up across 1.... continue doing that stop at some point stop and connect the lines. and if it's inequality write it as form of Y= instead of Y<,> then follow the above steps at last if it's grater than shade the upper part if it's less than shade the lower part.
Hope that helps

To solve it by coordinate graphs you would take a point from the line and plug in the X and Y value into the equations and or inequalities.
Yes, the graph of a linear equation can be a line. There are special cases, sometimes trivial ones like y=y or x=x which are linear equations, but the graph is the entire xy plane. The point being, linear equations most often from a line, but there are cases where they do not.
Somewhat, but the rules are a bit different for inequalities. Example. -2X > 4 X < - 2 See, sign changes when dividing by negative coefficient.
The question contains two equations:5x - 6y = 15 5x + y = 2 There are no inequalities in the question.
The word linear means in a straight line. If the graph is a line, it is linear. Also, linear equations are of the first order; they contain a variable but not a square (or higher power) of a variable. If the equation contains x2 it is not linear.
