Learning Objective

I can solve systems of linear equations using substitution.

  • 1

    The substitution method involves solving for one variable in one equation and substituting that expression into the other equation.

  • 2

    When using substitution, the goal is to create a single equation with one unknown variable.

  • 3

    After solving for one variable, substitute that value back into either of the original equations to solve for the remaining variable.
