Solving Systems of Linear Equations by Substitution

The video tutorial explains how to solve systems of linear equations using the substitution method. It begins with an introduction to the concept, followed by examples of substituting numbers and expressions into equations. The tutorial progresses to more complex examples, including substituting multiple terms and solving systems in standard form. Throughout, the importance of checking solutions is emphasized.

What is the first step in solving systems of linear equations by substitution?

• Checking the solution
