What is the graphical representation of a linear equation?

Back

A straight line on a coordinate plane.

Front

How do you determine if a point is a solution to a system of equations?

Back

Substitute the point's coordinates into each equation; if they satisfy all equations, it is a solution.

Front

What is the substitution method in solving systems of equations?

Back

A method where one equation is solved for one variable, and that expression is substituted into the other equation.
