Study Notes
Solving Systems of Equations
- To solve the system of equations (3x - 5y = -16) and (2x + 5y = 31), find (x) and (y): the solution is (3, 5).
- For the equations (y = 3x) and (x + 2y = -21), solving for (x) reveals that (x = -3).
- The substitution method applied to (x + 5y = -3) and (3x - 2y = 8\ yields the solution (2, -1).
Nature of Solutions
- The equations (x + 3y = 3) and (2x + 6y = 6\ have infinitely many solutions, indicating they represent the same line.
- Intersecting lines represent a system with exactly one solution.
- A system classified as dependent features an infinite number of solutions.
Methods of Solving
- For the equations (6x - 2y = -4) and (y = 3x + 2), substitution is the most appropriate method.
- Multiplication can also be used for systems like (3x + 4y = 6) and (5x + 2y = -4), leading to the solution (-2, 3).
General Concepts
- A system of equations consists of multiple equations sharing the same variables.
- Knowledge of quadrants is essential when graphing inequalities or solutions on a coordinate plane.
