Simple Solving Systems of Equations by Substitution

What is the substitution method used for in solving 3-variable systems?

• To solve for one variable and substitute it into the other equations.

• To graph the system of equations.

• To solve for all variables simultaneously.

• To find the determinant of the coefficient matrix.

When using the substitution method, what is the first step to substitute one variable?

• Multiply both sides of the equation by a constant.

• Solve one of the equations for one variable in terms of the other variable.

• Simplify the equation.

• Rearrange the equation to isolate one variable.
