Use the equal values method to solve each system of linear equations. Show all your work.

1. Solve the following system of equations:

y = 3x + 2

y = x + 4

2. Solve the following system of equations:

y = 2x - 5

y = 4x + 1

3. When using the equal values method, you set the   expressions for 'y' (or 'x') equal to each other.

4. After solving for one variable, you   the value back into one of the original equations to find the other variable.

5. Solve the system:

y = -x + 7

y = 2x + 1

6. Which of the following systems of equations would be easiest to solve using the equal values method?

a

2x + y = 5 x - 3y = 1

b

y = 3x + 2 y = -x - 6

c

x + y = 10 x - y = 2

d

4x + 2y = 8 3x + y = 4

7. The equal values method is only used when both equations are already solved for 'y'.

T

True

F

False

8. Solve the system:

x = 5y - 10

x = 2y - 1
