Why does substitution help us solve a system of equations?

• It changes one variable to an expression using the other variable, so we can solve an equation that only has one variable at a time.

• It creates a problem with fewer steps.

• It puts both equations in slope-intercept form for easy graphing.

TRUE or FALSE:

When both equations have the same variable isolated

(both y = or both x = ),

substituting the first into the second ends up looking like

you just set the two equal to each other.

• TRUE

• FALSE
