Algebra 2 3.2 Solving Linear Systems Algebraically Substitution and Elimination
Learning Targets • Students should be able to… • Use algebraic methods to solve linear systems (both substitution and elimination). • Use linear systems to model real-life situations.
Warm-up • Solve each equation for the indicated variable. • 2x – y = 5 Solve for y. • -x+2y = 3 Solve for x. • 3x – 4y = 12 Solve for y. • 3x – 4y = 12 Solve for x.

Review of Formulas • Slope Intercept Form: • Standard Form: • Point Slope Form: y = mx + b Ax + By = C
Substitution • Steps to Solving a Linear Equation by Substitution: • Solve one of the equations for one of the variables • Substitute this expression into the other equation and solve for the remaining variable. • Take this value and substitute it into the equation you found from step 1 and solve for the remaining variable. • Check! (in original equations)
Example 1: Solve the following systems using the substitution method. • 3x – y = 13 b. x + 3y = –2 2x + 2y = –10 –4x – 5y = 8
c. x – y = 8 d. 2x – y = 14 –3x + 6y = –24 6x + 3y = 18
Elimination/Linear Combination • Multiply one or both equations by a number so coefficients for 1 of the variables are opposite. • Add the equations eliminating one of the variables. Solve for the remaining variable. • Substitute this value into one of the original equations and solve for the other variable. • CHECK! (in original equations)
Use Elimination to Solve • 3x – 5y = –36 2. 2x + 3y = –1 6x + 2y = 0 –5x + 5y = 15
6x + 2y = 20 4. 2x – 6y = 19 -4x + 3y = –22 –3x + 2y = 10
Special Results 1. 6x – 4y = 14 2. 4x – 6y = 14 –3x + 2y = 7 –6x + 9y = –21
Three ways to solve a system of linear equations: • 1. Graphing **Easy to graph – in slope intercept form or in an easy standard form • 2. Substitution **Easy to substitute – one of the variables has the coefficient of 1 or –1 • 3. Linear Combination (Elimination) **Easy to linear combine – coefficients in one equation is a multiple of the coefficient of the same variable in the other equation.
Real World Problems 1. A citrus fruit company plans to make 13.25 lb gift boxes of oranges and grapefruits. Each box is to have a retail value of $21.00. Each orange weighs .5 lb and has a retail value of $.75, while each grapefruit weighs .75 lb and has a retail value of $1.25. How many oranges and grapefruits should be included in the box?
Real World Problems 2. You are planting a 160 sq ft garden with shrubs and perennial plants. Each shrub costs $42 and requires 16 sq ft of space. Each perennial plant costs $6 and requires 8 sq ft of space. You plan to spend a total $270. How many of each type of plant should you buy to fill the garden?
