System by Elimination and Graphing

Solve the system by elimination.

7x - y = -10

-7x + 5y = -6

• (-2, -4)

• (-2, -1)

• (-4, -1)

• (6, -8)

Alexandra finds that she can give 3 haircuts and 2 hair dyes in 315 minutes. Giving 2 haircuts and 4 hair dyes takes 450 minutes.  Which system of equations represents the situation?

• 3x + 2y = 315
  2x + 4y = 450

• 3x + 2y = 450
  2x + 4y = 315

• 2x + 2y = 315
  3x + 4y = 450

When using any of the 3 methods to solve a system of linear equations the resulting solution is the same no matter which method is used.

• True; using any method will result in the correct solution.

• False; the solution varies because the solution depends on which method is used.

• Systems by Graphing

• Systems by Substitution

• Systems by Elimination

• Systems by Drawing

Solve the system:
3x + y = 19
2x - y = 6

• (5, 14)

• (4, 5)

• (5, 4)

• (14, 5)

7x - y = -10
-7x + 5y = -6

• (-2, -4)

• (-2, -1)

• (-4, -1)

• (6, -8)

Identify which method for solving systems is being described by this fact: Equations must have like terms "stacked" up vertically, usually written in standard form.

• Graphing

• Substitution

• Elimination (linear combination)

When solving the system, if you get a result of something like 6 = 6 or -2 = -2 and the answer is:

• No Solution

• Infinitely Many Solutions

• Not possible

What is the solution to this system?

• (-2, -2)

• (2, -2)

• (-2,2)

• (2, 2)

Solve the system by elimination. 
−4x − 4y = 0
4x + 4y = 0 

• (−6, −4) 

• Infinite number of solutions  

• (−6, 10) 

• (6, 4)
