Typically in these math questions you will have two equations.
Both equations will have, lets say an x and y value. Two unknown variables.
Take the first equation and rearrange it so that you isolate one of the variables, lets say x.
To isolate x, arrange the equations so that x is on one side, and every other number is on the other.
This expression is equal to x.
Take this expression (all the numbers on opposite side of the side where the x is), and plug it into the second equation. That it, where ever the x appears in the second equation, replace it with this expression.
Solve for y through simple algebra.
Now, take the y value you solved for and plug it into one of the original equations. That is, replace the y in the equation with this number. Solve for x through algebra.
The x and y values you receive are known as the solution.

Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations Enter your answer as an ordered pair?
Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations. Enter your answer as an ordered pair.y = 2x + 5 x = 1
How do you solve a problem using the substitution method?
You solve this by theoretically diverting the hypotenuse of the x divided by the overall beneficial procedure of y
Use the substitution method to solve the system of equations Choose the correct ordered pair 2x plus 3y equals 13 x equals 2?
(2,3)
Use addition or substitution to find the value of x for this set of equations for x - y equals 120 x plus y equals 150?
X = 135 and y = 15 Solved by addition and substitution
What is called Substitution method?
When you have a system of equations and you can solve for one in terms of th others and then replace it in the other equations that is substitution. x+y=15 x-y=1 well the second one can be x=1+y x+y=15 then can be (1+y)+y=15 by substitution. 1+2y=15 2y=14 y=7 Then x+7=15 x=8
