LearningAlgebra
Solving Linear Systems of Equations
By:Mr. Patrick Paez
![Page 2: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
The first thing we need to do is learn about what
systems of linear equations are.
Systems of linear equations are two or
more linear equations of the same variables.
A point that lies on both lines would be the
solution to the system.
![Page 3: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Let’s look at an example of a system of linear equations.
x + 2y = 7
3x – 2y = 5
Since we are just dealing with an x – y coordinate system, or a Cartesian coordinate system, linear equations will either intersect or not intersect, making them parallel.
If they do intersect, the point of intersection is the solution to the system.

There are three different ways to find solutions for these systems of linear equations. They are:
• Graphing
• Substitution
• Elimination

Let’s start with solving by graphing. As stated earlier, the solution of two linear equations is the point of intersection. This point can be easily found by following three simple steps.
1) Put both equations in y-intercept form.2) Graph each equation and estimate the point
of intersection.3) Check the coordinates algebraically by
substituting into the original equations.
GRAPHING
![Page 6: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Here is an example of solving a system of linear equations by graphing.
You have the following two equations. Use a graph to solve the system of equations.
Eq 1: x + 2y = 7
x + 2y = 7-x -x
2y = -x + 7/2 /2 /2
y = -(1/2)x + 7/2
Eq 2: 3x – 2y = 5
3x - 2y = 5-3x -3x
-2y = -3x + 5/-2 /-2 /-2
y = (3/2)x - 5/2
![Page 7: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Now let’s see how this looks on a graph
As we can see on the graph, the
intersection is (3,2)
y = -(1/2)x + 7/2y = (3/2)x - 5/2
![Page 8: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The point, or coordinate, (3,2) would be the solution to that particular system of equations. Remember to
substitute the point (3,2) into the original equations to check your answer.
(3) + 2(2) = 73 + 4 = 7
7 = 7
3(3) – 2(2) = 59 – 4 = 5
5 = 5
Now, using the graphing method, try to find the solution for the following systems of equations.
Problem 1-x + y = -7x + 4y = -8
Problem 2y = -x + 4y = 2x - 8
![Page 9: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Problem 1
The two lines intersect at point (4,-3)
Don’t forget to check your
answer:y = x - 7
y = -(1/4)x - 2
-x + y = -7-(4) + (-3) = -7
-7 = -7
x + 4y = -8(4) + 4(-3) = -8
-8 = -8
![Page 10: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Problem 2
The two lines intersect at point (4,0)
Don’t forget to check your
answer:
y = -x + 40 = -(4) + 4
0 = 0
y = 2x - 80 = 2(4) - 8
0 = 0
![Page 11: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
SubstitutionGraphing is a good way to solve these systems. However, there will be some problems where graphing will get a little difficult. Good thing there is another strategy you can use. Here are the steps for solving by substitution.
1) Solve one of the equations for one variable.2) Substitute the expression from step 1 into
the other equation and solve for the other variable.
3) Substitute the value from step 2 into the revised equation from step 1 and solve.
![Page 12: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Example 1:
y = 3x + 2x + 2y = 11
Step 1: Solve one equation for a variable. Equation 1 is already solved for y.
Step 2: Substitute 3x + 2 for y in equation 2 and solve for x.
x + 2y = 11x + 2(3x + 2) = 11
x + 6x + 4 = 117x = 7x = 1
![Page 13: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Example 1 (continued):
Step 3: Substitute 1 for x in the original equation 1 to find the value of y.
y = 3x + 2y = 3(1) + 2
y = 5
Finish your work by checking your answers in equation 2.
x + 2y = 111 + 2(5) = 111 + 10 = 11
11 = 11
![Page 14: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
EliminationAgain, some equations may be a little harder to solve when using graphing or substitution. Solving by elimination can be one of the easier methods to use given the right situation. These are the three steps.
1) Add or subtract the equations to eliminate one variable.
2) Solve the resulting equation for the other variable.
3) Substitute in either original equation to find the value of the eliminated variable.
![Page 15: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
2x + 3y = 11-2x + 5y = 13
Step 1: Add the equations to eliminate one variable.2x + 3y = 11-2x + 5y = 13 8y = 24
Step 2: Solve for y
8y = 24y = 3
Example 1:
![Page 16: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Example 1 (continued):
Step 3: Substitute 3 for y in either equation and solve for x.
2x + 3y = 112x + 3(3) = 11
2x + 9 = 112x = 2x = 1
Finish your work by checking your answers in equation 2.
-2x + 5y = 13-2(1) + 5(3) = 13
-2 + 15 = 13
![Page 17: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Elimination: Part 2
Not all equations may be set up as nicely as the previous example. In some equations, you may have to multiply an equation by a constant so you can add or subtract the equations to eliminate one variable.
![Page 18: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Example 2:
6x + 5y = 192x + 3y = 5
Step 1: Multiply the bottom equation by -3 to make eliminating x possible.
6x + 5y = 19-3(2x + 3y = 5)
6x + 5y = 19-6x – 9y = -15
Step 2: Add the two equations together to eliminate x.
-4y = 4
![Page 19: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Example 2 (continued):
Step 3: Solve for y
-4y = 4y = -1
Step 4: Substitute -1 for y in either equation and solve for x.
6x + 5y = 196x + 5(-1) = 19
6x = 24x = 4
![Page 20: Final presentation](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070320/55895d3cd8b42a5e3f8b4621/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Finish your work by checking your answers in equation 2.
2x + 3y = 52(4) + 3(-1) = 5
8 - 3 = 55 = 5
Thank you for your time…and don’t forget to study!!!
