What does it mean to substitute?
to add different variables together and see what you get
to graph and find the intersection
guess and check
to replace the value of a variable with an equivalent expression
Which one shows the correct substitution for the system?
y = 2x + 1
2x - 3y = 7
2(2x + 1) - 3y = 7
2x - 3(2x + 1) = 7
y + 2x - 3y = 8
2x - 2x + 1 = 7
Which one shows the correct substitution for the system?
x = 7 + y
y = 7 - 2x
x = 7 + (7 - 2x)
y = 7 - 7 + y
x = 7 + 7
7 + y = 7 - 2x
Which choice shows substitution correctly?
x = 3y -7
2x + 4y = 9
2x + 4(3y - 7) = 9
2(3y -7) + 4y = 9
Which best describes a solution to a system of equations?
A point (x,y)
A line y=mx+b
One value x
One value y
Which equation is correctly using substitution for the system shown?
y = x + 6
y = -2x − 3
x + 6 = -2x − 3
y = x + 6 − 2x − 3
What should the expression look like when the values (numbers) are substituted in for the variables (letters)?
p +q+2 If p=3 and q=5,
3 + 3 + 2
3p + 5q + 2
5 + 5 + 2
3 + 5 + 2
Using the substitution method to solve this system, what would be the first step?
Substitute 3x+1 for x in the second equation
Substitute 3x+1 for y in the second equation
solve the first equation
Write the new equation to solve after using the substitution process correctly for the system.
y = 5x - 7
-3x - 2y= -12
-3(5x - 7) - 2y= -12
-3x - 2(5x-7) = -12
-3x -2y = 12(5x-7)
Write the new equation to solve after using the substitution process correctly for the system.
y = x - 1
2x - 3y= -1
2(x-1) - 3y= -1
2x - 3(x-1) = -1
2x -3y = 12(x-1)
