Defining a System of Equations A grouping of 2 or more equations, containing one or more variables. x + y = 2 2x + y = 5 2y = x + 2 y = 5x - 7 6x - y = 5
STEPS TO SOLVING A SYSTEM OF EQUATIONS BY GRAPHING 1.GRAPH BOTH EQUATIONS USING EITHER: – X & Y-INTERCEPTS – SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM 2. FIND THE SOLUTION: ORDERED PAIR WHERE THE TWO LINES INTERSECT. WRITE ANSWER AS A COORDINATE. You can check the solution by plugging the coordinate back into both equations
(A) y = x + 1 (B) y = 3 (2, 3) m = 1, b = 1 (0, 3) (2, 3) EXAMPLE 1: SOLVE THE SYSTEM OF EQUATIONS BY GRAPHING (A) y = x +1 (B) y = 3 STEP 1: Graph both equations STEP 2: Find intersection point
Check: Check to make sure the solution works for both equations (3) = (2) = 3 (A) y = x + 1 (B) y = 3 (2, 3) 3 = 3 Yes, (2,3) is the solution of the system of equation. (2,3) is the point where the lines intersect.
