Solve System of Equations

Determine which ordered triple is a solution of the systems of equations?
2x+y=0
x+3y-z=-11
7x+5y+4z=21

• (0,0,11)

• (1,-2,6)

• (-1,2,-16

• (0,1,-14)

Solve for x, y and z.

• (2, 5, 6)

• (6, 5, 2)

• (2, 6, 5)

• (6, 2, 5)

What is the best method to use?

y = −3x + 5

5x − 4y = −3

• Graphing

• Substitution because a variable is defined

• Elimination because the equations are in standard form

What is the best method to use?

4x + 8y = 20

−4x + 2y = −30

• Graphing

• Substitution because a variable is defined

• Elimination because the equations are in standard form

What is the proper way to set up the equation to begin solving?

y = 6x − 11

−2x − 3y = −7

• -2(-11) -3y= -7

• -2(6x-11) -3y = -7

• -2x -3(11) = -7

• -2x - 3(6x-11)= -7

What variable do you eliminate?

4x + 8y = 20

−4x + 2y = −30

• X because they have opposite signs

• Y because they have opposite signs

What is the proper set up to solve the equation?

-7x -2y= -13

x = 2y+11

• -7(11) -2y = -13

• -7(2y +11)-2y = -13

• -7x -2(11) =-13

• -7x - 2(2y+11)= -13

Steffen graphed two lines in order to find the solution to a given system of equations.
What is the solution?

• (-3,-8)

• (-8,-3)

• (3,-8)

• (8,3)

Solve for x and y
5x + 3y = 7
y = 4

• (4,1)

• (4,-1)

• (1,4)

• (-1,4)

The solution of a system of three linear equations in three variables, x,y, and z, is called a(n) ___________________ (x,y,z).

• Ordered Pair

• Integer

• Ordered Triple

• Sum
