6.1 Graphing Systems Unit 3 Algebra 1
Warm Up:Graph the following equations. • y = 2x + 1 • x + 2y = 12
Solving Linear Systems by Graphing 7.1 Objectives: • Solve a system of equations by graphing. • Solve systems from the real world. Vocabulary: system of linear equations, solution to a system, point of intersection
We have solved equations like: We found many solutions to the equations like: Now we will find 1 solution to 2 equations together like: 2x + 4 = 12 x – 4 = 5 3(x – 4) = 5 x + 2(x – 3) = 5 – (x + 4) y = 2x - 5 3x + 2y = 12
Vocabulary: System of Linear Equations – a group of 2 or more equations that are linear. Use a set mark { to group them. Think about our introductory activity…what did you learn? Examples: To get 1 solution, you need the same number of equations as variables.

Real Life Linear System You and your sister each have a savings account for college. You have $2000 and plan to deposit an additional $50 per month At the same time, your sister has a balance of $1600 and she plans to deposit $100 per month. Predict when you and your sister will have the same amount? 8 months
