Setting Up Systems of Linear Equations

This video tutorial focuses on setting up systems of linear equations from a word problem involving coffee bean purchases. The problem involves determining the quantities of dark and light roast beans Lauren should buy, given cost constraints and total weight requirements. The video guides viewers through formulating two equations based on these constraints, emphasizing understanding the setup process rather than solving the equations.
