Graphical solutions of solving equations backmore
Two straight lines y=mx+c and y=nx+d are displayed. The x coordinate of the point at which the lines intersect (indicated by the blue arrow) will be the solution to the equation:
mx+c = nx+d
How many solutions can such equations have? At most? At least?
