Solving Systems of Linear Equations by Graphing

The video tutorial covers algebra section 5.1, focusing on solving systems of equations by graphing. It begins with an introduction to systems of linear equations and their solutions. The tutorial then explains how to determine if an ordered pair is a solution to a system. The main method discussed is solving systems by graphing, with detailed steps and examples provided. The video concludes with a real-world application problem, demonstrating how to set up and solve a system of equations to find the number of exercises in math and science.

What is a system of linear equations?
