Solving Systems of Equations by Substitution Method

Solve the system using the substitution method.

• (1, -4)

• (1, 4)

• (-4, -7)

• (-7, -4)

a method of solving a system of equations by taking a variable out and replacing it with an expression.

• Systems by Graphing

• Systems by Substitution

• Systems by Elimination

• Systems by Drawing

What is the solution to the system?

• No solution

• (0, 2)

• (0, -4)

• (3, -3)

What is the solution to this system of equations? Solve by substitution or graphing.

• (7, -8)

• (-7, 8)

• (-7, -8)

• (7, 8)

When using any of the 3 methods to solve a system of linear equations the resulting solution is the same no matter which method is used.

• True; using any method will result in the correct solution.

• False; the solution varies because the solution depends on which method is used.

Identify which method for solving systems is being described by this fact:
If one equation is isolated like y = 2x or x = 7 - 4y then this method should be used.

• Graphing

• Substitution

• Elimination (linear combination)

Solve this system by substitution.

• (1, -4)

• (1, 4)

• (-4, -7)

• (-7, -4)

When solving the system, if you get a result of something like 6 = 6 or -2 = -2 and the answer is:

• No Solution

• Infinitely Many Solutions

• Not possible

Solve the system of equations.
y = 4x+1
3x + 2y = 13

• (1, 5)

• (5, 1)

• (0.25, 2)

• ∅

Solve for x and y
3x + 2y = 16
7x + y = 19

• (-2,5)

• (-2,-5)

• (2,-5)

• (2,5)
