The video tutorial explains the substitution method for solving systems of equations. It outlines the steps involved, including solving one equation for a variable, substituting it into another equation, and solving for the remaining variable. Several examples are provided, demonstrating scenarios with unique solutions, no solutions, and infinite solutions. The tutorial concludes with a real-life application involving the purchase of turkey and veggie burgers.

What is the first step in solving systems of equations using substitution?

• Graph both equations to find the intersection point.

• Combine like terms in both equations.

• Solve one of the equations for one variable.

• Substitute one equation into the other and solve.
