    To solve a system of equations using substitution, take one equation and isolate one variable in terms of the other. Substitute this expression into the other equation and solve for the isolated variable. Then substitute back into either original equation to solve for the other variable. For example, to solve the system x + 3y = 4 and 2x - 3y = -1, isolate y in the first equation and substitute into the second equation.

    2 Solving a System Using Substitution


    1.

    2.

    3.

    Example.

    x + 3y = 4 2x 3y = -1

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

    3. 2x 3y = -8 3x + 2y = 14

    4. x + 4y = 16 3x + 4y = 8
