Algebraic equations with two variables will need two equations to be able to solve it. Then, you can solve it with either substitution, adding/subtracting them together, or graphing! Those are the basic steps... For example: An instance of substitution: 2x + 1 = y + 2 x + y = 3 You could isolate y in the second equation to equal y = 3-x. Then in the first equation, substitute y with what it equals to 2x + 1 = 3-x+2 Then you can solve for x!
X = 135 and y = 15 Solved by addition and substitution
To solve the following equation by substitution, we need to have the equal sign. This will help us group the knowns and the unknowns.
If: x+y = 8 and 2x-y = 5 Then by adding the equations together: 3x = 13 or x = 13/3 By substitution into the original equations: x = 13/3 and y = 11/3
x+y=5
Since the second equation is already solved for "y", you can replace "y" by "9" in the other equation. Then solve the new equation for "x".
If: x+y = 4 and y = 2x+1 Then: 4-x = 2x+1 => 3 = 3x => 1 = x So by substitution: x = 1 and y = 3

y= -4x-7 y=3x 3x= -4x-7 3x+4x=7 7x=7 x=1

This is not Calculus.y=7(Already solved)substiute y=7 into y=8xtherefore 7 = 8xtherefore x = 7/8
By definition: 4x-10 = 5-x 4x+x = 5+10 5x = 15 x = 3 and y = 2
Substitution property.
-3x = 3 + y 3 + y - 5y = -21 -4y = -24 y = 6 x = -3
4x-y=2, thereforey=4x-2sub y into 3x+2y=6...3x+8x-4=611x=10x=10/11
