To solve a system of equations by graphing solve a system of equations by substitution
System of Linear Equations A system of linear equations is a set of two or more linear equations containing two or more variables. A solution of a system of linear equations with two variables is an ordered pair that satisfies each equation in the system.
Graph and/or Substitute Sometimes it is difficult to identify the exact solution to a system by graphing. In this case, you can use a method called substitution. The goal when using substitution is to reduce the system to one equation that has only one variable.
Graph and/or Substitute Not all systems of linear equations have graphs that intersect in one point. There are three possibilities for the graph of a system of two linear equations, and each represents a different solution set.
EXAMPLE 1: Solving a System of Equations by Substitution and Graphing Solve the system by substitution and graphing. Step 3: Substitute in one of the original equations. y = 3x y = x 2 Step 1 Write equations as one equation by substituting Ordered Pairs Step 2 Solve for the variable
EXAMPLE 2: Solving a System of Equations by Substitution and Graphing Solve the system by substitution and graphing. 2x + 5 = x + 3 5 -5 2x = x 2 x x x = 2 Substitute in one of the original equations Ordered Pair
