Systems of Equations by Substitution Isolated Variable

Which is the best method to use?

y = 6x − 11

−2x − 3y = −7

• Graphing

• Substitution because a variable is isolated.

• Elimination because both equations are in standard form.

Which answer has a correct first step for this system:

• The variable is already isolated, so we've already solved the system.

• The variable is already isolated for y, so we substitute it in the first equation and solve for x

  3x + 3(3x + 5) = 3

• Free sha vaca doo

• The variable is already isolated for y, so we substitute it in the second equation and solve for x

  y = 3(3x + 3y) = 3

How can you tell if a point is a solution to a system?

• It makes the first equation true.

• The (x,y) coordinates satisfy both equations

• It makes logical sense

• It makes neither equation negative
