Lines: solving equations
Move points A or B on the red line. The lines y = -1, x = 5 and y = 2x+1 are also shown.

Please enable Java for an interactive construction (with Cinderella).
Use this display to solve the simultaneous equations:
y = -1
y = -x+5
solution x= y=
y = 2x+1
y = -2x+5
solution x= y=
x = 5
y = 2x-6
solution x= y=
