3.2 SOLVING LINEAR SYSTEMS BY SUBSTITUTION STEPS FOR SOLVING A LINEAR SYSTEM BY SUBSTITUTION: STEP 1: Solve for 1 variable for one of the two equations (it doesn’t matter which equation you start with and which variable you choose to solve for). STEP 2: Substitute one equation into the other and solve for the given variable. STEP 3: Substitute the solution from STEP 2 into the equation you solved for from STEP 1 and solve for the given variable. THIS IS MUCH EASIER WITH AN EXAMPLE!

7.3 SOLVING LINEAR SYSTEMS BY ELIMINATION STEPS FOR SOLVING A LINEAR SYSTEM BY ELIMINATION WITH ELIMINATION FIRST: STEP 1: Align the variables with x and y on the same side of each equation. Choose a variable to eliminate and multiply each equation by the coefficients. Then ADD or SUBTRACT the equations. STEP 2: SOLVE the equation for the remaining variable. STEP 3: Substitute the solution from STEP 2 into either equation to solve for given variable. THIS IS MUCH EASIER WITH AN EXAMPLE!

3.2 ELIMINATION WITH MULTIPLICATION FIRST I’ll eliminate the x’s first Now I have matching coefficients! Solve this system using elimination.
