2. Solve by Substitution: 1)Isolate one variable in an equation 2)Substitute into the other equation with ( ) 3)Solve the second equation 4)Plug answer into first equation to find other variable

3. 8)X – 3y = 16 4x – y = 9 -y = 9 – 4x y = -9 + 4x X – 3(-9 + 4x) = 16 X + 27 – 12x = 16 -11x = -11 x = 1 Y=-9+4(1) Y=-5 (1,-5) Consistent Independent 1) Isolate one variable in an equation 2) Substitute into the other equation with ( ) 3) Solve the second equation 4) Plug answer into first equation to find other variable

4. 5) 2m + n = 6 5m + 6n = 1 n = 6 – 2m 5m + 6(6 – 2m) = 1 5m + 36 – 12m = 1 -7m = -35 m = 5 n= 6 – 2(5) n= -4 (5,-4) Consistent Independent

5. 7) u – 2v = 1/2 -u + 2v = 5 u = 1/2 + 2v -(1/2 + 2v) + 2v = 5 -1/2 -2v + 2v = 5 0v = 5.5 0 = 5.5 No Solution! Inconsistent

6. Solve by Elimination 1)Multiply one or both equations so that one of the variables is the additive inverse of the other one 2)Add the two equations together 3)Solve the equation 4)Substitute answer into an equation and solve

7. 11) 2m – n = -1 3m + 2n = 30 Multiply top by 2 4m – 2n = -2 3m + 2n = 30 7m = 28 m=4 2(4) – n = -1 8 – n = -1 –n = -9 n = 9 Solve by Elimination 1) Multiply one or both equations so that one of the variables is the additive inverse of the other one 2) Add the two equations together 3) Solve the equation 4) Substitute answer into an equation and solve (4,9)

9. 14) 2x - y = -4 -4x +2y =6 Multiply top by 2 4x – 2y =-8 -4x+2y =6 0x = -2 0=4 Solve by Elimination 1) Multiply one or both equations so that one of the variables is the additive inverse of the other one 2) Add the two equations together 3) Solve the equation 4) Substitute answer into an equation and solve Inconsistent

10. Substitution: When it’s easy to isolate one variable Elimination: When it’s not easy to isolate one variable Or you just want the value of one variable (Eliminate the other one) When is it best to use each method….

11. Check for Understanding 1)What must you multiply the top equation by to eliminate the x? 5x – 3y = 12 15x – 6y = 2 2) 2) What will y be equal to in the second equation to solve by substitution? 5x – 3y = 12 15x – y = 2 By -2 to make +6 -y=2 - 15x Y = -2 + 15x
