Solving Systems by SubstitutionObjectiveSolve systems of linear equations in twovariables by substitution.Holt McDougal Algebra 1

Solving Systems by SubstitutionSometimes it is difficult to identify theexact solution to a system by graphing. Inthis case, you can use a method calledsubstitution.The goal when using substitution is toreduce the system to one equation thathas only one variable. Then you cansolve this equation by the methodstaught in Chapter 2.Holt McDougal Algebra 1
