1. Graph y = 2x & y = x + 3
2. Graph x - y = 2 & 2x + y = 1y = x - 2 & y = -2x + 1
3. Check this out Now Consider what happens when we add the two equations y = 2x y = x + 3
4. Graph 2y = 3x + 3 or y = 3/2x + 3/2
5. Graph 2y = 3x + 3
6. Objective To be able to solve a system of equations by using the linear combination (add) method
7. 1.) Solve by Addition (elimination) 2x + 3y = 7
x - 3y = 8
8. 1.) Solve by Addition (elimination) 2x + 3y = 72(5) + 3y = 7
10 + 3y = 7
9. 2.) Solve by Addition (elimination) 3a = 2b + 7
2b = 9 - a
10. 2.) Solve by Addition (elimination) 3a - 2b = 7
a +2b = 9
11. 2.) Solve by Addition (elimination) 2b = 9 - a
2b = 9 -(4)
2b = 5
b = 5/2
12. 3.) You try This one 2x - y = 7
x+ y = 2
13. 3.) You try this one x + y = 2(3) + y = 2
14. Be ready to answer 1.) What are the other two methods of solving two equations?
2.) What do you do, before you add, if the terms of the equation aren�t lined up?
15. How many solutions do the following equations have? 1.) x = 3y
