Solving Systems by Substitution

Use substitution to solve each system of equations. Be sure to check your solutions!

1. y = 3x – 8 Solution:__________
x+y=4

2. 2x + 7y = 3 Solution:__________
x = 1 – 4y

3. 4x – 5y = -12 Solution:__________
3x – y = 13

4. x – 5y = 11 Solution:__________
x = 3y + 1

5. y = 5x + 2 Solution:__________
y = 3x – 12
6. x = -3y – 1 Solution:__________
-4x – 6y = 34

7. x = 5y – 5 Solution:__________
-4x + 20y = 10

8. x + 3y = -24 Solution:__________
x–y=8
