Solving Linear Systems with a Table

What is the table method used for in solving systems of equations?

• To solve quadratic equations

• To find the intersection of circles

• To find the x-values where y-values are different

• To find the x-values where y-values are the same.

In the table method, what form should the equations be in?

• y = form

• x = form

• x + y = form

What should you do if the difference between y-values is getting larger?

• Continue in the same direction

• Change the x-values to larger numbers

• Stop using the table method

• Change the x-values to smaller numbers

What happens when the y-values are the same?

• The solution is incorrect

• The solution is found

• The table needs to be redrawn

• The x-values need to be adjusted

What is a potential problem with using only the table method?

• It always gives decimal solutions

• It cannot find integer solutions

• It may not work well with decimal or fractional answers.

What is the solution to the system?

Write your answer in (x,y) form
