Solve each system of equations using the Equal Values Method. Show all your work.
1. Solve the following system of equations: y = 3x + 2 y = -2x + 7
2. Find the solution to the system: y = 5x - 8 y = x + 4
3. When using the equal values method, we set the expressions for equal to each other.
4. The solution to a system of linear equations represents the point of of the two lines.
5. The equal values method can only be used if both equations are already solved for 'y'.
True
False
6. Consider the system: 2x + y = 10 y = 4x - 2 First, rewrite the first equation to isolate 'y', then solve the system using the equal values method.
7. Plot the solution to the system y = x + 1 and y = -x + 3 on the graph below.
Solution: ( , )
