Questions

  1. Which of the following is the correct first step when using substitution to solve the system: y = 2x + 1 and 3x + y = 7?
  2. Which steps are part of the elimination method for solving systems of equations?
  3. Put the steps for solving the system by substitution in the correct order.
  4. Fill in the blanks to solve the system: x + y = 5 and x - y = 1. First, add the equations to eliminate y: (x + y) + (x - y) = _ and 5 + 1 = _, so x = ___.
  5. Match each system with the best method to solve it efficiently.
