Solving Systems of Equations by Graphing Substitution and Elimination

When you graph the exact same equation twice,

• you will have no solution. 

• you will have one solution.

• you will have infinite solutions. 

• you will graph a giraffe.

The school that Stefan goes to is selling tickets to a choral performance. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 3 senior citizen tickets and 1 child ticket for a total of $38. The school took in $52 on the second day by selling 3 senior citizen tickets and 2 child tickets. Which equations represents the system that could be used?

• 1s + 3c = 38
  2s + 3c = 52

• 3s + 1c = 38
  3s + 2c = 52

• s + c = 38
  s + c = 52

• 3s + 3c = 38
  1s + 2c = 52

Now determine what the solution to this system is!

• c = 12 s = 8

• c = 14 s = 8

• c = 8 s = 14

• c = 8 s = 12

Last season two running backs on the Steelers football team rushed a combined total of 1550 yards. One rushed 4 times as many yards as the other.

Let x and y represent the number of yards each individual player rushed.

Now determine what the solution to the system is!

• x = 310 y = 1240

• x = 1240 y = 310

• x = 1545 y = 5

• x = 5 y = 1545
