When using the substitution method to solve a nonlinear system of equations you should first see if you can one variable in one of the equations in the system?
isolate
How do you work out the point of intersection without a graph?
You use algebra and solve the system(s) of equations using techniques such as elimination or substitution.
When is it best to solve a systems of linear equations using elimination?
Elimination is particularly easy when one of the coefficients is one, or the equation can be divided by a number to reduce a coefficient to one. This makes substitution and elimination more trivial.
How do you decide whether to use elimination or subsitution to solve a three-variable system?
There is no simple answer. Sometimes, the nature of one of the equations lends itself to the substitution method but at other times, elimination is better. If they are non-linear equations, and there is an easy substitution then that is the best approach. With linear equations, using the inverse matrix is the fastest method.
How do you solve 3 dimensional equations?
You can solve the system of equations with three variables using the substitute method, or using matrix operations.
