10.1 Systems of Two Linear Equations in Two Variables
Summary 1:
Systems of Equations
A system of two linear equations in two variables is two equations considered together. To solve a system is to find all the ordered pairs that satisfy both equations.
When solving a system three situations can occur:
1. The lines intersect. There is one solution, the point where they intersect. The system is called a consistent system.
2. The lines are parallel. There is no solution, the lines do not intersect. The system is called an inconsistent system.
3. The lines are the same. There are infinitely many solutions, the lines coincide. The system is called dependent.
Systems of equations can be solved by various methods which will be discussed in this chapter.
Warm-up 1. a) Use the graphing approach to solve the system. Tell whether the system is consistent, inconsistent or dependent.

The Substitution Method
To solve a system of equations by the substitution method:
1. Solve one of the equations for one of the variables.(Choose a variable with a coefficient of 1 or -1 if possible.)
2. Substitute this expression into the other equation to produce an equation with only one variable.
3. Solve the equation in Step 2 for the remaining variable.
4. Substitute this solution into the expression obtained in Step 1.
5. Solve for the second variable.
6. Write your solution set as an ordered pair, and check in each equation.
Warm-up 2. a) Solve the system by the substitution method: [pic]
y = 2 - 3x 1) Solve the 2nd equation for y.
2x - 3( ) = 5 2) Substitute 2 - 3x into the other
equation in place of y.

Warm-up 3. a) Solve by setting up a system of equations:
Brian invested $10,000, part of it at 6% interest and the remainder at 4%. His yearly interest income from the two investments was $540. How much did he invest at each rate?
It is sometimes helpful to set up a chart.
| | | | |
| |rate • |amount = |interest |
| | | | |
|investment 1 |6% = 0.06 |x |0.06x |
| | | | |
|investment 2 |4% = 0.04 |y | |
| | | | |
|total |-------- |10,000 | |
Fill in the last two entries in the chart. Then use the last two columns
to write your system of equations.

x = Solve 1st equation for x.
0.06( ) + 0.04y = 540 Substitute this expression into other equation in place of x.

10.2 Elimination-by-Addition Method
Summary 1:
Elimination-by-Addition Method
In the elimination-by-addition method we use the following operations to produce an equivalent system which can be easily solved.
1. Any two equations can be interchanged.
2. Both sides of an equation can be multiplied by any nonzero real number.
3. Any equation can be replaced by the sum of that equation and a nonzero multiple of another equation.
Steps for elimination-by-addition method:
1. Write each equation in standard form if needed.
2. If necessary, multiply one or both equations by some constant which will make the x or y coefficients opposites.
3. Add the equations from step 2 together eliminating one of the variables.
4. Solve for the remaining variable.
5. Substitute this solution into either of the original equations.
6. Solve for the second variable.
7. Write the solution set and check.
Warm-up 1. a) Solve the system by the elimination-by-addition method:
[pic]
The equations are in standard form.
3x = If we add the 2 equations the y's will cancel. x = Solve for x.
+ 3y = 7 Substitute x = 4 into either equation.
3y = Solve for y.
y =
{( , )} Write the solution set and check.
check: 4 + 3(1) = 7 ?
2(4) - 3(1) = 5 ?
Worksheet 55 (10.2)
b) Solve the system by the elimination-by-addition method:
[pic] Equations are in standard form.
9x - 6y = -63 Multiply the first equation by 3 and the
4x + 6y = -2 second equation by 2 so the coefficients of the y terms become -6 and 6.
13x = Add the two new equations together to eliminate the y terms.
x = Solve for x.
3( ) - 2y = -21 Substitute this solution for x into either original equation.
- 2y = -21 Solve for y.
-2y =
y =
{ ( , ) } Write the solution set and check.
check: 3(-5) - 2(3) = -21 ?
2(-5) + 3(3) = -1 ?
Summary 2:
Which Method to Use?
1. If one equation is already solved for one of the variables, substitution would probably be the easiest method.
2. If solving for either variable in either equation would produce fractions to substitute, use the addition method.
3. Always clear fractions in both equations before deciding which method to use.
Problems - Solve by either method:

Warm-up 2. a) Solve the system:
[pic]
4x - 2( ) = 12 Since the first equation is already solved for y, substitute 2x + 7 into the second equation in place of y.
4x - - = 12 Solve for x
= 12 This is a false statement, which implies The solution set is ∅ the system has no solution and is an inconsistent system.
Problem
3. Solve the system:
[pic]
ΦNote: In Problem 3 the solution set can be expressed {(x,y)|2x + y = 9}. Obtaining an equation which is always true indicates that the two lines are the same and any point that satisfies the equations is a solution. The system is dependent.

10.3 Systems of Three Linear Equations in Three Variables
Summary 1:
Linear Equations in Three Variables
Linear equations in 3 variables such as x + y + z = 5 have solutions which are ordered triples, (x,y,z).
The graph of a linear equation in 3 variables is a plane. To graph you would need a 3-dimensional coordinate system.
To solve a system of 3 linear equations in 3 variables, means to find all the ordered triples that satisfy all three equations.
Similar to a system of 2 equations:
1) There can be one solution. (All 3 planes intersect at one point.)
2) There can be many solutions. (The 3 planes intersect in more than one point.)
3) There can be no solution. (All 3 planes never intersect.)
We will solve systems with 3 variables and 3 equations by the elimination- by-addition method.
Warm-up 1. a) Solve the system by the elimination-by-addition method:

7x - z =
-9x + 3y - 6z = 6 Multiply equation 3 by -3 and add to
2x - 3y + z = -3 equation 1 eliminating the y terms.
-7x =
7x - z = -33 Add the equations resulting from the first -7x - 5z = 3 two steps, eliminating the x terms.

10.4 Matrix Approach to Solving Systems
Summary 1:
Matrices
A matrix is an array of numbers arranged in horizontal rows and vertical columns. If a matrix has 2 rows and 3 columns it is called a 2 x 3 (two-by-three) matrix. A matrix can have any number of rows or columns. In general a matrix with m rows and n columns is called a matrix of dimension m x n.
Every system of linear equations has associated with it an augmented matrix consisting of the coefficients and constant terms of the system.
Summary 2:
Gaussian Elimination
A system of equations can be solved using the augmented matrix and the following Elementary Row Operations:
1. Any two rows of an augmented matrix can be interchanged.
2. Any row can be multiplied by a nonzero constant.
3. Any row of the augmented matrix can be replaced by adding a nonzero multiple of another row to that row.
This method is called Gaussian Elimination.
