Solving Systems by Substitution Step

What is the solution to the system?
2x - 2y = 2
y = -5x + 14

• (4, 5)

• (2.5, 1.5)

• (1.5, 5)

• (1, 2.25)

Solve the following systems of equations using substitution:

y = 8

y = -4x + 4

• (8, -1)

• (-28, 8)

• (-1, 8)

• (8, -28)

Solve the following systems of equations using substitution:

x = 6

y = 2x - 3

• (6, 6)

• (6, 9)

• (9, 6)

• (9, 9)

The first step in solving using the substitution method is __________.

• get x by itself

• get y by itself

• get either variable by itself

• add the equations together

What is the solution to this system?
y= 4x + 3
2x - 3y = 21

• (3,-9)

• (-3,-9)

• (-3,9)

• (0,1)

Erin is 3 years younger than twice Alex's age. Their ages combined are 33 years. How old are Alex and Erin. If x=Erin's age and y=Alex's age, choose the system that matches the situation.

• x + y = 33
  y = 2x - 3

• x + y = 33
  x = 2y - 3

• x + y = 33
  x = 3 - 2y

• x + y = 3
  x = 33 - 2y

3x + 2y = 8
-x + y = -11

• (-5,6)

• (6,-11)

• (-6,-5)

• (6,-5)

What is the solution to the system of equations? 
y = 3x - 8
y = 4 - x

• (3,1)

• (1,3)

• (-3,1)

• (3,-1)

Solve for x and y
3x + 2y = 16
7x + y = 19

• (-2,5)

• (-2,-5)

• (2,-5)

• (2,5)

Solve the following system using the substitution strategy.
 -7x - 2y = -13
X = 2y + 11

• (5,6)

• (3,-4)

• (-4, 4)

• (-3, -4)
