1

Solving by substitution

Step 1; Make sure both equations are in slope intercept form

2

Multiple Choice

Which of these equations is in slope intercept form?

1

3x - 2y = 10

2

2x = 6y - 2

3

2y = 6x + 3

4

y = 2x + 1

3

Multiple Choice

What is the slope intercept form for

2y = 6x + 3 ?

1

It is already in slope intercept form

2

y = 3x + 2/3

3

y = 3x + 3/2

4

y = 3x + 3

4

Multiple Choice

What is the slope intercept form for

2y + 4x = 6 ?

1

y + 2x = 3

2

y = 2x + 3

3

y = 3 - 2x

4

y = -2x + 3

5

Solving by substitution

Step 2: since y = y, set the equations equal to each other

6

Example of step 2

y = 3x + 2 y = -2x + 3

Since y = y when solving a system of equations,

3x + 2 = -2x + 3

7

Multiple Choice

How would you set up this system for solving for x?

y = x + 2 y = 2x + 5

1

x + 2 =

2x + 5

2

x - 2 =

2x + 5

3

x + 5 =

2x + 2

4

x - 2 =

2x - 5

8

Step 3: Solve for x

y = 2x + 3 y = x - 5

2x + 3 = x - 5 subtract x from both sides

x + 3 = -5 Subtract 3 from both sides

x = - 8

9

Multiple Choice

Solve for x

y = 6x + 4 y = 2x + 2

1

x = 6/8

2

x = -1/2

3

x = 1/2

4

x = 0

10

Multiple Choice

solve for x

y = 3x + 2 y = -2x - 4

1

x = -6/5

2

x = 6/5

3

x = 5/6

4

x = - 5/6

11

Step 4: Solve for y

y = 2x + 3 y = x - 5

2x + 3 = x - 5 subtract x from both sides

x + 3 = -5 Subtract 3 from both sides

x = - 8 Put -8 into either equation to solve for y

y = -8 - 5 y = -13

12

Multiple Choice

Solve for y if x = -1/2

y = 6x + 4 y = 2x + 2

1

y = 1

2

y = -1/2

3

y = 1/2

4

y = 0

13

Step 5: check your answer

y = 2x + 3 y = x - 5

x = - 8 y = -13

-13 = 2(-8) + 3 -13 = -8 - 5

-13 = =-16 + 3 Both answers check, the answer is (-8, -13)

14

Multiple Choice

Try this one on your own. Find the solution to this system:

y = x + 6 y = - x + 4

1

x = 1

y = 7

2

x = 1

y = 3

3

x = - 1

y = 5

4

x = -1

y = -5
