The video tutorial covers methods to solve systems of equations, focusing on substitution and elimination techniques. It provides examples and practice problems to illustrate how to choose the best method for different systems. The tutorial concludes with solutions and checks for each example, ensuring understanding of the concepts.

What are the two primary methods for solving systems of equations discussed in the video?

• Graphing and Factoring

• Matrix Method and Graphing

• Elimination and Substitution

• Completing the Square and Quadratic Formula

In the first example, why is the elimination method chosen?

• Because it allows for quick substitution

• Because adding the equations eliminates one variable

• Because it requires fewer steps

• Because it is easier to graph

What is the solution to the system in Example 1?

• x = 3, y = -5

• x = -2, y = 7

• x = -3, y = 5

• x = 2, y = -7

In Example 2, what is the first step in using the substitution method?

• Add the equations together

• Graph the equations

• Multiply both equations by a constant

• Substitute y with an expression in terms of x

What is the solution to the system in Example 2?

• x = 26, y = -13

• x = -13, y = 26

• x = 13, y = -26

• x = -26, y = 13

In Example 3, what is the value of y after solving the equation?

• y = 9

• y = 3

• y = 5

• y = 7

What is the solution to the system in Example 3?

• x = 6, y = 5

• x = 5, y = 6

• x = 4, y = 7

• x = 7, y = 4

In Example 4, what operation is performed to eliminate a variable?

• Add a constant to both equations

• Subtract the equations

• Multiply the bottom equation by a constant

• Divide both equations by a constant

What is the solution to the system in Example 4?

• x = 3, y = -2

• x = -2, y = 3

• x = 2, y = -3

• x = -3, y = 2

What is the final check for the solution in Example 4?

• Substitute the values back into the original equations

• Check if the solution satisfies only one equation

• Graph the solution

• Use a different method to solve
