Solve Systems by Substitution: 1)Line up the x and y values in standard form 2)Make one variable opposite each other if needed 3)Add the equations 4)Solve for the variable 5)Plug answer into any equation to find the other variable 6)Write answer as ordered pair (x,y)
Example 1: Rewrite the linear system so that the like terms are arranged in columns a. 3x – y = 23 y + 8x = 11 3x – y = 23 8x + y = 11
Example 1: Rewrite the linear system so that the like terms are arranged in columns b. 4x = y + 1 3y + 4x = 7 4x – y = 1 4x + 3y = 7
Example 1: Rewrite the linear system so that the like terms are arranged in columns c. 7x – y = 13 y = 14x - 3 7x – y = x + y = -3
Example 2: Use the linear combination method to solve the system. 2x + 3y = 11 -2x + 5y = y = 24 y = 3 2x + 3(3) = 11 2x + 9 = 11 2x = 2 x = 1 ans:_______________ (1, 3)
6x – 4y = 14 -3x + 4y = 1 + 3x = 15 x = 5 -3(5) + 4y = y = 1 4y = 16 y = 4 ans:_______________ (5, 4)
4x – 3y = 5 –2x + 3y = x = -2 x = -1 -2(-1) + 3y = y = -7 3y = -9 y = -3 ans:_______________ (-1, -3)
3x + 4y = -6 2y = 3x +6 3x + 4y = -6 -3x + 2y = 6 + 6y = 0 y = 0 3x + 4(0) = -6 3x = -6 x = -2 ans:_______________ (-2, 0) Example 3: Use the linear combination method to solve the system.
8x – 4y = -4 4y = 3x x – 4y = -4 -3x + 4y = x = 10 x = 2 -3(2) + 4y = y = 14 4y = 20 y = 5 ans:_______________ (2, 5)
-5y = -4x – 6 2x + 5y = 12 4x – 5y = –6 2x + 5y = x = 6 x = 1 2(1) + 5y = 12 5y = 10 y = 2 ans:_______________ (1, 2) 2 + 5y = 12
