Systems of Equations: Graphing, Substitution, and Elimination!

By Shalynne Orth

System of Equations

two or more linear equations
solution is the intersection of the equations

Systems of Equations: Graphing

Different types of solutions

1. One solution: The solution is where the points intersect

2. No solution: The lines will never intersect so this system does not have an answer

3. Infinite solutions: The lines have the same equation.

Systems of Equation - Elimination

***VERY IMPORTANT SLIDE***

ADDITIVE INVERSES (opposites)

WHEN YOU HAVE TWO OPPOSITE TERMS
ONE IS POSITIVE AND THE OTHER IS NEGATIVE
COMBINED (ADDED TOGETHER) EQUAL ZERO
3 + (-3) = 0
7y + (-7y) = 0

Multiple Choice

Which variable has opposite coefficients?

Multiple Choice

Which variable can we ELIMINATE?

$5x\ +\ 8y\ =\ 23$ $-5x\ +\ 4y\ =\ 5$

Multiple Choice

Which variable can we ELIMINATE?

$3x\ +\ -4y\ =\ -5$ $-10x\ +\ 4y\ =\ 12$

Multiple Choice

When you combine (ADD) these 2 equations, what do you end up with?

$3x\ +\ -4y\ =\ -5$ $-10x\ +\ 4y\ =\ 12$

$-13x\ +\ 8y\ =\ 7$

$-7x\ =\ 7$

$7x\ +\ 8y\ =\ 7$

WHEN SOLVING USING ELIMINATION

Look for opposite coefficients
IF THERE IS NONE, MULTIPLY EVERY TERM IN AN EQUATION

Systems of Equations Word Problems

Multiple Choice

At a restaurant the cost for a breakfast taco and a small glass of milk is $2.10. The cost for 2 tacos and 3 small glasses of milk is $5.15. If a system of equations is written, which would be the correct representation of the 2 variables?

t: # of tacos
m: # of glasses of milk

t: Cost of each taco
m: Cost of each glass of milk

t: total cost
m: # of food items

t: Cost of each glass of milk
m: Cost of each taco

Multiple Choice

A large pizza at Palanzio’s Pizzeria costs $6.80 plus $0.90 for each topping. The cost of a large cheese pizza at Guido’s Pizza is $7.30 plus $0.65 for each topping. Which system of equations could be used to find the number of toppings when both companies cost the same amount?

y = 6.80 + .65x
y=7.30+.90x

x + y = 6.80
x + y = 7.30

y = 6.80+.90x
y = 7.30 + .65x

y + .90x = 6.80
y + .65x = 7.30

Multiple Choice

On Monday Joe bought 10 cups of coffee and 5 doughnuts for his office at the cost of $16.50. It turns out that the doughnuts were more popular than the coffee. On Tuesday he bought 5 cups of coffee and 10 doughnuts for a total of $14.25. Which equations could be used to determine the cost of the coffee?

10c + 5d = 14.25
5c + 10d = 16.50

10c + 5d = 16.50
5c + 10d = 14.25

c + d = 10
5c + 10d = 16.50

c + d = 5
5c + 10d = 16.50

Multiple Choice

Dennis mowed his next door neighbor’s lawn for a handful of dimes and nickels, 80 coins in all. Upon completing the job he counted out the coins and it came to $6.60. Which system of equations could be used to find the exact number of dimes and nickels?

d + n = 6.60
.10d + .05n = 80

d + n = 80
d + n = 6.60

d + n = 80
.10d + .05n = 6.60

d + n = 80
.05d + .10n = 6.60
