7. How can we solve this? A family goes to a fish store to buy some fish. They get a new fish tank and 20 small fish for a total of $95. Later that same day another customer buys the same fish tank and 12 of the same small fish for a total of $83. How much does a fish tank cost? How much do the small fish cost?

8. How can we solve this? Thinking Communication

9. How can we solve this? At a local building supply store: One customer has ordered 75 pieces of lumber (2x4s) and 2 large buckets of screws. The wood and screws weigh a total of 442.5 lbs. Another customer ordered 25 pieces of lumber (2x4s) and one large bucket of screws. The total weight of that order is 152.5 lbs. How much does a bucket of screws weigh? How much does one piece of lumber weigh?

11. Elimination The elimination method is the process of eliminating one of the variables in a system of equations using addition in conjunction with multiplication or division and solving the system of equations

12. Example 1 – Easiest case… 2x + y = 9(#1) 3x – y = 16(#2)

13. Example 1 – Easiest case… 2x + y = 9(#1) 3x – y = 16(#2) -------------------------- 5x + 0y = 25(#3) Add (#1) & (#2) 5x = 25Simplify x=5

14. Example 1 – Cont’d Take your answer of x=5 and substitute it back into equation (#1) or (#2), whichever is easier… 2(5) + y = 9 10 + y = 9 y = 9 – 10 y = -1

15. Check your answer… So your answer is (5,-1) To check your answer 2x+y=9 (#1)3x-y=16 (#2) 2(5)+(-1)=93(5)-(-1)=16 10-1=915+1=16 9=916=16True

16. Example 2 – x’s or y’s same but same sign… x – 2y = –9 (#1) x + 3y = 16 (#2)

17. Example 2 – x’s or y’s same but same sign… x – 2y = –9 (#1)……… x – 2y = –9 (#1) x + 3y = 16 (#2) mult by -1-x - 3y = -16 (#3) Now add (#1 & #3)----------------------- 0x – 5y = -25 (#4) -5y = -25 y= 5

18. Example 2 – Cont’d Take your answer of y=5 and substitute it back into equation (#1) or (#2), whichever is easier… x – 2(5) = –9 (#1) x – 10 = -9 x = -9 +10 x = 1

19. Check your answer… So your answer is (1,5) To check your answer x-2y=-9 (#1)x+3y=16 (#2) 1-(2)(5)=-91+(3)(5)=16 1-10=-91+15=16 -9=-916=16True

20. Example 3 – What do I do when my equations look different? 2x +1 = y (#1) y = 3x (#2)

21. Example 3 – What do I do when my equations look different? 2x +1 = y (#1)……… 2x +1 = y (#1) y = 3x (#2)……… rearrange… -3x = -y (#3) Now add (#1 & #3)----------------------- -x + 1 = 0 (#4) -x = -1 x = 1

22. Example 3 – Cont’d Take your answer of x=1 and substitute it back into equation (#1) or (#2), whichever is easier… y = 3(1) (#2) y = 3 Don’t forget to check!!!

23. Example 4 – What do I with decimals? 0.06x +0.9y = 0.42 (#1) 0.3x - 0.5y = 0.1 (#2)

24. Example 4 – What do I with decimals? 0.06x +0.9y = 0.42 (#1) x 100…6x + 90y = 42 (#3) 0.3x - 0.5y = 0.1 (#2) x 10…3x - 5y = 1 (#4) Then, (#4) x -2…-6x +10y = -2 (#5) Now, add (#3) and (#5) 0x +100y=40 (#6) y = 0.4

25. Example 4 – Cont’d Take your answer of y=0.4 and substitute it back into equation (#1) or (#2), whichever is easier… 0.3x - 0.5(0.4) = 0.1 (#2) 0.3x – 0.2 = 0.1 0.3x = 0.3 x=1

26. Example 5 – What do I do with fractions?

27. Multiply each equation by its LCD & simplify… (#1) x 12-> 3x+4y=6 (#3) (#2) x 10-> 4x+5y=80 (#4) Then, multiply each equation by number necessary to get a variable opposite but equal (#3) x 4-> 12x+16y=24 (#5) (#2) x -3->-12x-15y=-240 (#6) (#5)+(#6) y=-216

28. Example 5 – Cont’d Take your answer of y=-216 and substitute it back into equation (#1) or (#2), OR (#3) or (#4) whichever is easier… 3x+4y=6 (#3) 3x+4(-216)=6 3x-864=6 3x=6+864 3x=870 x=290Don’t forget to check!!!

36. Definition of Substitution a person or thing acting or serving in place of another… In linear relations, the method of solving "by substitution" works by solving one of the equations (you choose which one) for one of the variables (you choose which one), and then plugging this back into the other equation, "substituting" for the chosen variable and solving for the other. Then you back-solve for the first variable.

37. Substitution example 1 y = x - 1 (#1) y = 2x - 3 (#2) You substitute the x – 1 from (#1) into y in (#2) This gives you x – 1 = 2x-3 (#3)

38. Substitution example 1 y = x - 1 (#1) y = 2x - 3 (#2)

39. Substitution example 1 (cont’d) x – 1 = 2x-3 (#3) Now solve for x -1 + 3 = 2x - x Collect like terms 2= x Simplify & solve x = 2 Switch sides

40. Substitution example 1 (cont’d) Now take your answer of x=2 and plug it back into either equation (1) or (2)… pick whichever is the easiest y = x - 1 (1) y= 2 - 1 y = 1

41. Check your answer… So your answer is (2,1) To check your answer y = x – 1 (#1)y = 2x - 3 (#2) 1 = 2 – 11 = 2(2) -31 = 1True

42. Substitution example 2 x+4y=6 (#1) 2x-3y=1 (#2)

43. Substitution example 2 x+4y=6 (#1)….. Rearrange to x=6-4y (#3) 2x-3y=1 (#2) You substitute the 6-4y from (#3) into x in (#2) This gives you 2(6-4y)-3y=1 (#4)

44. Substitution example 2 (cont’d) 2(6-4y)-3y=1 (#4) Now solve for y 12-8y-3y=1 Use distributive law -11y=1-12 Collect like terms -11y=-11 Simplify y=1

45. Mental health break…

46. Substitution example 2 (cont’d) Now take your answer of y=1 and plug it back into either equation (1) or (2)… pick whichever is the easiest x+4y=6 (1) x+4(1)=6 x+4=6 x=6-4 x=2

47. Check your answer… So your answer is (2,1) To check your answer x+4y=6 (#1)2x-3y=1 (#2) 2+4(1)=62(2)-3(1)=1 6=64-3=1 True1=1 True
