Chapter 6: Systems of Linear Equations
Two Variable System
DefinitionsSystem – a conjunction of two or more equations
0111 cybxa0222 cybxa
GENERAL FORM:
Solution – an ordered pair of values that will satisfy all equations in the system
SOLUTION OF TWO VARIABLE SYSTEM
Graphical
Method
Assigning 2 points for each line
Converting each line into
y=mx + b
Computing the intercepts
of each line
SOLUTION OF TWO VARIABLE SYSTEM
Algebraic
Method
Cramer’s Rule
Elimination Substit
ution
Eliminating one variable and solving the other
Solving for the determinants
Isolating one variable
GRAPHICAL METHOD
Only intersecting equations have a unique or finite solution. They are called consistent equations. However, there are also systems that has infinite solutions or no solutions at all. Inconsistent equations – if two lines are parallel, then the system has no solution

Algebraic Solution
Elimination Method (Gaussian Elimination)
1. Find equations equivalent to the two given equations such that the coefficients of one variable are additive inverse or the same
2. By addition or subtraction of the two equations, we eliminate one variable
3. Derive a linear equation in one variable and solve that variable4. Substitute the value of the solved variable in the other equation
and solve for the second variable
