Solve by Graphing 2x+2y=-6 3x-2y=11

$2 x + 2 y = - 6$ $3 x - 2 y = 11$

Step 1

Subtract $2 x$ from both sides of the equation.

$2 y = - 6 - 2 x$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

Step 2

Divide each term in $2 y = - 6 - 2 x$ by $2$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $2 y = - 6 - 2 x$ by $2$ .

$\frac{2 y}{2} = \frac{- 6}{2} + \frac{- 2 x}{2}$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{2 y}{2} = \frac{- 6}{2} + \frac{- 2 x}{2}$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$y = \frac{- 6}{2} + \frac{- 2 x}{2}$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

$y = \frac{- 6}{2} + \frac{- 2 x}{2}$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

$y = \frac{- 6}{2} + \frac{- 2 x}{2}$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify each term.

Divide $- 6$ by $2$ .

$y = - 3 + \frac{- 2 x}{2}$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

Cancel the common factor of $- 2$ and $2$ .

Factor $2$ out of $- 2 x$ .

$y = - 3 + \frac{2 (- x)}{2}$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $2$ out of $2$ .

$y = - 3 + \frac{2 (- x)}{2 (1)}$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

Cancel the common factor.

$y = - 3 + \frac{2 (- x)}{2 \cdot 1}$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

Rewrite the expression.

$y = - 3 + \frac{- x}{1}$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

Divide $- x$ by $1$ .

$y = - 3 - x$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

$y = - 3 - x$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

$y = - 3 - x$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

$y = - 3 - x$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

$y = - 3 - x$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

$y = - 3 - x$

$3 x - 2 y = 11$

Step 3

Subtract $3 x$ from both sides of the equation.

$- 2 y = 11 - 3 x$

$y = - 3 - x$

Step 4

Divide each term in $- 2 y = 11 - 3 x$ by $- 2$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- 2 y = 11 - 3 x$ by $- 2$ .

$\frac{- 2 y}{- 2} = \frac{11}{- 2} + \frac{- 3 x}{- 2}$

$y = - 3 - x$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 2 y}{- 2} = \frac{11}{- 2} + \frac{- 3 x}{- 2}$

$y = - 3 - x$

Divide $y$ by $1$ .

$y = \frac{11}{- 2} + \frac{- 3 x}{- 2}$

$y = - 3 - x$

$y = \frac{11}{- 2} + \frac{- 3 x}{- 2}$

$y = - 3 - x$

$y = \frac{11}{- 2} + \frac{- 3 x}{- 2}$

$y = - 3 - x$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify each term.

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$y = - \frac{11}{2} + \frac{- 3 x}{- 2}$

$y = - 3 - x$

Dividing two negative values results in a positive value.

$y = - \frac{11}{2} + \frac{3 x}{2}$

$y = - 3 - x$

$y = - \frac{11}{2} + \frac{3 x}{2}$

$y = - 3 - x$

$y = - \frac{11}{2} + \frac{3 x}{2}$

$y = - 3 - x$

$y = - \frac{11}{2} + \frac{3 x}{2}$

$y = - 3 - x$

Step 5

Create a graph to locate the intersection of the equations. The intersection of the system of equations is the solution.
