You do the following:
1) Solve one of the equations for one of the variables
2) Substitute this variable in the other equation or equations
3) Simplify
This should normally give you one less equation than the original set, with one less variables. For example:

How do use substitution when solving system of equations?
You use substitution when you can solve for one variable in terms of the others. By substituting, you remove one variable from the equation, which can then be solved. Once you solve for one variable, you can use substitution to find the other.
How would use solve the system of equation x plus 3y equals 23 by using substitution?
You'd need another equation to sub in
What 4x y14 and 2x y8 solve using substitution?
You cant solve it unless it is an equation. To be an equation it must have an equals sign.
How can you solve a linear equation?
by elimination,substitution or through the matrix method.
What are three ways to solve a system?
elimination, substitution and graphing

What is Solve By Substitution y0.5x 2 -y-2x 4?
To solve the following equation by substitution, we need to have the equal sign. This will help us group the knowns and the unknowns.
Translate this word problem as a system of equations and then solve using substitution?
A system of equations is two or more equations that share at least one variable. Once you have determined your equations, solve for one of the variables and substitute in that solution to the other equation.
What are three ways to solve a system?

To solve a three variable system of equations you can use a combination of the elimination and substitution methods?
True. To solve a three variable system of equations you can use a combination of the elimination and substitution methods.
Solve the equation by substitution method x-y equals 5?
x+y=5
How do you solve the system of equation by substitution x plus 2y-2 3x plus 4y6?
If you mean x+2y = -2 and 3x+4y = 6 then by solving the simultaneous equations by substitution x = 10 and y = -6
