Use Desmos to solve SAT algebra problems with two variables. Graph the equations 2x + 3y = 12 and x - y = 1, find where the lines intersect, and read the x-coordinate (3) as your answer. Faster than solving by hand.

This is how you could solve any SAT question using Desmos. Whenever you see a question that has x and y's in it, 9 times out of 10, this is a Desmos question. Open up the calculator. Let's read the equation. If 2x 3y 12 and x - y 1, what is the value of x? Well, we first need to enter in these two equations in order to find it. I'm gonna enter them in now. So it asked me to find the value of x. Let's first look where these points intersect. They intersect at the value , and that means that the x-coordinate is gonna be 3 3, and the y-coordinate's 2. So they're asking us to find the value of x. In this case, the value of x would be 3, which is the answer.
