Solve System of Equations by Using Substitution
In this lesson, we learn how to solve a system of equations by using substitution. The main goal of substitution is to find the value of one variable first, and in this case, we chose y. By substituting in the value of y into the second equation, we were able to solve for x. After finding the value of x, we plugged it back into the first equation to solve for y. The solution was the intersection of the two graphs and was written as the coordinate point of 0, 1.
Solve the system of equations by using substitution
I show how to solve math problems online during live instruction in class. This is my way of providing free tutoring for the students in my class and for students anywhere in the world. Every video is a short clip that shows exactly how to solve math problems step by step. The problems are done in real time and in front of a regular classroom. These videos are intended to help you learn how to solve math problems, review how to solve a math problems, study for a test, or finish your homework. I post all of my videos on YouTube, but if you are looking for other ways to interact with me and my videos you can follow me on the following pages through My Blog, Twitter, or Facebook.
