Study Notes

Solving Systems by Substitution: Key Concepts

  • Systems of equations can have no solution, infinite solutions, or a single solution.
  • No solution occurs when two lines are parallel and never intersect. Example:
    • y = 2x + 5
    • y = 2x - 7

Infinite Solutions

  • Occurs when two equations represent the same line. Example:
    • y = -4x + 2
    • 4x + y = 2

Unique Solutions and Corresponding Points

  • Each solution point (x, y) represents the intersection of the equations:
    • (5, 10):
      • y = x + 5
      • y = -3x + 25
    • (2, 1):
      • y = 6x - 11
      • -2x - 3y = -7
    • (4, 3):
      • 2x - 3y = -1
      • y = x - 1
    • (2, 3):
      • y = 5x - 7
      • -3x - 2y = -12
    • (6, -6):
      • y = -2x + 6
      • y = -0.5x - 3
    • (10, -1):
      • y = x - 11
      • y = -2x + 19
    • (-1, -8):
      • 8x + y = -16
      • y = 3x - 5
    • (-2, 5):
      • 7x + 10y = 36
      • y = 2x + 9
    • (-5, -2):
      • 3x + 4y = -23
      • x = 3y + 1
    • (6, -3):
      • 15x + 31y = -3
      • x = -y + 3
    • (3, 3):
      • x - 3y = -6
      • 2x - y = 3

Conclusion

  • Use substitution for solving systems by finding intersection points between equations.
  • Analyze equations to identify the relationship (parallel, the same line, or intersecting) to determine the type of solutions available.
