Equations containing fractions. | To solve these equations, we get rid of the fractions by multiplying each term. |
Solving Simultaneous equations graphically. | Two simultaneous equations may be solved by drawing graphs of the two equations and then reading the x-value and the y-value of their point of intersection. |
