This video covers lesson five of unit four, focusing on solving systems of linear equations using the substitution method. It begins with a warm-up exercise on solving systems graphically, followed by a detailed explanation of solving algebraically through substitution. The video includes multiple examples demonstrating both graphical and algebraic solutions, including a case with no solution due to parallel lines. Each example is verified to ensure accuracy.

What is the first step in solving a system of linear equations graphically?

• Substitute one equation into the other.

• Find the y-intercept of both equations.

• Solve for x in both equations.

• Graph both equations and find their intersection point.

When using substitution to solve a system algebraically, what do you substitute?

• The x-value from one equation into the other.

• The y-value from one equation into the other.

• The expression for x from one equation into the other.

• The expression for y from one equation into the other.

After finding the value of x using substitution, what is the next step?

• Solve for y in the second equation.

• Check the solution by substituting into both equations.

• Substitute the value of x back into one of the original equations to find y.

• Graph the equations again.

What is the purpose of checking a solution in both original equations?

• To find a different solution.

• To ensure the solution is correct for both equations.

• To graph the solution.

• To solve for a new variable.

What does it mean if two lines are parallel when graphed?

• They intersect at the origin.

• They have no solution.

• They have infinite solutions.

• They have one solution.

How can you identify a system with no solution algebraically?

• The equations have the same slope and y-intercept.

• The equations have different slopes.

• The equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

• The equations have different y-intercepts.

What is the result when solving a system algebraically that indicates no solution?

• The final equation is a false statement like 0 = 5.

• The y-values are equal.

• The x-values are equal.

• The final equation is a true statement like 5 = 5.

What is the graphical representation of a system with infinite solutions?

• Two perpendicular lines.

• Two intersecting lines.

• Two parallel lines.

• Two overlapping lines.

What is the key indicator of a system with infinite solutions when solved algebraically?

• The final equation is a false statement like 0 = 5.

• The final equation is a true statement like 0 = 0.

• The equations have different slopes.

• The equations have different y-intercepts.

What should you do if you find a mistake in your algebraic solution?

• Ignore it and move on.

• Recheck your calculations and correct the error.

• Graph the equations again.

• Change the equations.
