Solving Systems of Linear Equations with Substitution

Mr. Allen introduces solving systems of linear equations using the substitution method. He explains the method through three examples, demonstrating how to solve for variables and find the intersection points of lines. The video concludes with a discussion on the importance of substitution in more advanced mathematics and a preview of future topics.

Which method does Mr. Allen prefer for solving systems of linear equations?

• Substitution method

• Graphing method

• Elimination method

• Matrix method
