6. Systems of Equations 7-4 A system of equations is a set of two or more equations that contain two or more variables. A solution of a system of equations is a set of values that are solutions of all of the equations. If the system has two variables, the solutions can be written as ordered pairs.

7. Systems of Equations 7-4 When solving systems of equations, remember to find values for all of the variables. Caution!

8. Systems of Equations 7-4 Additional Example 1A: Solving Systems of Equations Solve the system of equations. y = 4x – 6 y = x + 3 y = 4x – 6y = x + 3 The expressions x + 3 and 4x – 6 both equal y. So by the Transitive Property they are equal to each other. 4x – 6 = x + 3

9. Systems of Equations 7-4 Additional Example 1A Continued To find y, substitute 3 for x in one of the original equations. y = x + 3 = 3 + 3 = 6 The solution is (3, 6). Solve the equation to find x. 4x – 6 = x + 3 – x – xSubtract x from both sides. 3x – 6 = 3 3x 9  6 Add 6 to both sides. 3  = 3 x = 3 Divide both sides by 3.

10. Systems of Equations 7-4 The system of equations has no solution. 2x + 9 = –8 + 2x – 2x – 2x Transitive Property Subtract 2x from both sides. 9 ≠ –8 Additional Example 1B: Solving Systems of Equations y = 2x + 9 y = –8 + 2x

11. Systems of Equations 7-4 Check It Out: Example 1A Solve the system of equations. y = x – 5 y = 2x – 8 y = x – 5y = 2x – 8 x – 5 = 2x – 8 The expressions x – 5 and 2x – 8 both equal y. So by the Transitive Property they equal each other.

12. Systems of Equations 7-4 Check It Out: Example 1A Continued To find y, substitute 3 for x in one of the original equations. y = x – 5 = 3 – 5 = –2 The solution is (3, –2). Solve the equation to find x. x – 5 = 2x – 8 – x Subtract x from both sides. –5 = x – 8 3 = x + 8 Add 8 to both sides.

13. Systems of Equations 7-4 The system of equations has no solution. 3x – 7 = 6 + 3x – 3x – 3x Transitive Property Subtract 3x from both sides. –7 ≠ 6 Check It Out: Example 1B y = 3x – 7 y = 6 + 3x

14. Systems of Equations 7-4 To solve a general system of two equations with two variables, you can solve both equations for x or both for y.

15. Systems of Equations 7-4 Additional Example 2A: Solving Systems of Equations by Solving for a Variable Solve the system of equations. 5x + y = 7 x – 3y = 11 – y – y  3y  3y Solve both equations for x. 5x = 7 – y x = 11 + 3y – 15y – 15y 55 = 7 – 16y Subtract 15y from both sides. 5(11 + 3y)= 7 – y 55 + 15y = 7 – y

16. Systems of Equations 7-4 Additional Example 2A Continued –7 48 – 16y Subtract 7 from both sides. Divide both sides by –16. –16 = – 16 x = 11 + 3y = 11 + 3(–3)Substitute –3 for y. = 11 + –9 = 2 The solution is (2, –3). 55 = 7 – 16y –3 = y

17. Systems of Equations 7-4 You can solve for either variable. It is usually easiest to solve for a variable that has a coefficient of 1. Helpful Hint

18. Systems of Equations 7-4 Additional Example 2B: Solving Systems of Equations by Solving for a Variable Solve the system of equations. –2x + 10y = –8 x – 5y = 4 –10y –10y +5y +5y Solve both equations for x. –2x = –8 – 10y x = 4 + 5y = – –8 –2 10y –2 –2x –2 x = 4 + 5y 4 + 5y = 4 + 5y – 5y Subtract 5y from both sides. 4 = 4 Since 4 = 4 is always true, the system of equations has an infinite number of solutions.
