Linear Equations

Solving Systems of Linear Equations by Graphing and Substitution

QuestionAnswer
To solve 2x – 3y = –2 4x + y = 24 you need to solve for y in the second equation by getting the equation to equal y. What would the new equation be? 4x + y = 24 y = –4x + 24 The second equation is equal to y so can begin the next step of putting the value of y into the first equation.
To solve for x you put the second equation into the y value of the first equation and solve. The steps to solve for x would be? 2x – 3(–4x + 24) = –2 2x + 12x – 72 = –2 14x = 70 x = 5
You use the x value to find the y value. If the x=5 what is the equation for the value of y? y = –4(5) + 24 = –20 + 24 = 4 which means y=4
To check your answers to your equation, what would you do? Put the x and y value back into the equation and solve.
This equation has how many solutions? {y=3x+2} {y=-3x+2} This equation only has 1 solution because the graphs will only intersect at one point.Because they have the same slope, they will eventually intersect.
To solve for points on a line equation you must create a T chart with the points of x and y by plugging in a value for x and solving for the value of y. {2x+y=0} {3x+y=1} What would be the coordinates on the graph if x=0? 2(0)+y=0 y=0 The first point on the T chart graphed would be (0,0) because you inserted zero for x and the answer was y=0
If a system simplifies to 0=-2 how many solutions does it have? The system has no solutions because they don't cancel out.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
