Task
- Substitution
- An office supply company sells two types of notebook laptops. They charge $150 for one of the machines and $225 for the other. If the company sold 22 notebooks for a total of $3900 last month, how many of each type were sold?
- X=Notebooks $150(1) Y=Notebooks$225(2)
- X+Y=22
- 150X+225Y=3900
- X+Y=22
- -Y -Y(Subtracting)
- X=22-Y
- 150(22-Y)+225Y=3900(Then your going to multiply)
- 3300+150Y+225Y=3900
- 3300+75Y=3900
- 75Y=600
- Y=8(Y=Notebooks$225)Finale Answer
- X+8=22
- X=14
X=14(X=Notebooks$1500)Finale Answer
- Substitution
- Means replacing the variables in an algebraic expression with numerical or algebraic values.
- Ex: Find the value of 3b+4 when b=10
- 3b means 3 times b = 3 times 10 = 30
- so 3b+ 4= 30 +4= 34
Solving Systems of Equations by substitution
- Step 1 Solve for a variable if necessary.
- Step 2 Substitute expression into the other equation.
- Step 3 Solve that equation for the remaining variable.
- Step 4 Substitute value into one of the original equations and solve.
- Step 5 Write the values as an ordered pair & check.
- y=3x
- y=x-2
- 3x=x-2
- -1x -x
- 2x=-2
- 2 2
x=-1 - y=3x
- y=3(-1)
- y=-3
- (-1,-3)
- Checking
- y=3x
- -3=3(-1)
- y=x-2
- -3=(-1)-2
Process
- Solving Systems of Equations by Elimination (Addition)
- where you actually eliminate one of the variables by adding the two equations, it means to mark out, to take out, to make it go away.
- Step 1 Align like terms and equal signs, usually in standard form.
- Step 2 If needed, create opposite coefficients by multiplying both sides of equations by a number.
- Step 3 Add equations, combining like terms and eliminating one variable.
- Step 4 Solve remaining equation.
- Step 5 Substitute solution back into one of the original equations to find the other value.
- Y+3x= -2
- 2y-3x=14
- 3y=12
- 3 3
- y=4
- y+3x-2
- 4+3x=-2
- -4 -4
- 3x=-6
- 3 3
- x=-2
Finale Answer(-2,4)
Example Problem
- A hardware store earned $956.50 from renting ladders and power tools last week. The store charged 36 days for ladders and 85 days for power tools. This week the store charged 36 days for ladders , 70 days for power tools , and earned $829. How much does the store charge per day for ladders and power tools?
- 36L+85p=956.50
- -36L=70p=829
- 15p=127.50
- 15 15(Dividing)
p=$8.50/ per day(Finale Answer)Ladders
- 36L+70p(8.50)=829
- 36L+595=829
- -595 -595(Subtracting)
- 36L=234
- 36 36(Dividing)
L=$6.50/ per day(Finale Answer) Power Tools
- Sometimes BOTH variables eliminate from the problem!
- If true statement remains there are infinite solutions.
- If false statement remains there are no solutions.
- (IM) infinite solutions Example problem
- -2x+y=-4
- 2x-y=4
0=0 True
- No Solution Example problem
- 2x-3y=6
- -4x+6y=4
- 4x-6y=12
- 0=16
- False
Evaluation
- Systems of Linear Equations
- A collection of linear equations, where the number of equations matches the number of variables, allowing for an algebraic solution.
- Examples of Linear Systems
- 2 variables
- y=3x+1
- y=-2x+7
- 3 variables
- y=2x+3z+10
- y=-4x+7z-8
- y=-3x+5z+12
Applying Systems of Linear Equations
- Elimination
- Example problem
- 3x-y=10
- 2x-y=7
- Solve the equation for y
- 3x-y=10
- y=-7+2x
- Eliminate the given value of y into the equation 3x-y=10
- 3x-(-7+2x)=10
- solve the equation for x
- x=3
- Eliminate the given value of x into the equation y=-7+2x
- y=-7+2x3
- y=-1
- The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair (x, y)=(3, -1)Finale Answer
- Check if the given ordered pair is the solution of the system of equations
- 3x3-(-10=10
- 2x3-(-1)=7
- 10=10
- 7=7
Since all of the equalities are true, the ordered pair is the solution of the system.
Substitution Example problem
- -x+2y=3
- 4x-5y=-3
- Solve the equation for x
- x=-3+2y
- 4x-5y=-3
- Substitute the given value of x into the equation 4x-5y=-3
- 4(-3+2y0-5y=-3
- Solve the equation for y
- y=3
- Substitute the given value of y into the equation x=-3+2y
- x=-3+2x-3
- Solve the equation for x
- x=3
- The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair (x, y)=(3, 3)
- Check if the given ordered pair is the solution of the system of equations
- -3+2x3=3
- 4x3-5x3=-3
- 3=3
- -3=-3
- Since all of the equalities are true, the ordered pair is the solution of the system.
