Experimental WME Service

The twoline.wme is a CGI-based WME service. It receives form input and produces result in <meml>...</meml>.

The response is currently delivered under the type

application/mesp+xml

And your browser will ask you to store the result in a file.

We are considering exactly what media type designation to use eventually, candidates are application/xml, text/xml, text/meml, application/meml+xml (likely), ...

At present (June. 2003), it serves as a tool for experimentation in the MESP (Mathematics Education Service Protocol).

Simultaneous Linear Equations in Two Variables

Given the equations for two straight lines, you can find their point of intersection by solving the two equations simultaneously. The solution is a point on both lines, satisfying both equations.

Each equation, involving the variables x and y, is in the general form

a * X + b * Y = c

where a, b, and c are parameters representing fixed numbers for any given line.

Enter the equations to see the solution and the plot:

Equation one:

Equation two:
