Use graph paper for this question.
Take 2 cm = 1 unit on both axes.
(i) Draw the graphs of x +y + 3 = 0 and 3x-2y + 4 = 0. Plot only three points per line.
(ii) Write down the coordinates of the point of intersection of the lines.
(iii) Measure and record the distance of the point of intersection of the lines from the origin in cm.
