Fantastic Systems and How to Solve Them
What strategy would I use to solve this system of equations? How do you know?
y = 2x + 9
y = 5x-1
y = , y =
Equal Values
Maybe graphing
How do you know this system can be solved using elimination?
2x + y = 10
x +2y = -1
Both in standard form:
ax + by = c
5x4 * 2x3
10x7
x=4
What strategy would I use to solve this system?
x = 2y - 9
7x - 10y = 0
Substitution
One is in x =, the other is something different
What would be my first step in solving with elimination?
x - 2y = 9
x + 2y =-1
Adding straight down, zeroing out the y's
-4(2ab)0
-4
x = 7
x = -13
Solve using substitution
x = 10
y = 5x - 7
(10, 43)
Solve the system:
x - 2y = 9
x + 2y =-1
(4, -2.5)
(4x5)2
16x10
3(x - 4) = 5x + 18
x = -15
Solve the system of equations:
y = 5x -1
y = 3x + 13
(7, 34)
What step must be taken before adding these equations?
4x + y = 21
3x + 2y = 47
Multiply top equation by -2
x4 / (16 * x12)
(x-3)2 = x2 - x - 1
x = 2
Solve the system of equations:
y = 2x-1
4x + 3y = 27
(3, 5)
Solve the system:
4x + y = 21
3x + 2y = 47
(-1, 25)
5 * a * b-3 * a-4 * b7 * 2
10 * b4 / (a3)
|5x-4|=21
x = 5
x = -17/5
or -3.2
