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.
Solve linear equations with complex coefficients on both sides?
You would solve them in exactly the same way as you would solve linear equations with real coefficients. Whether you use substitution or elimination for pairs of equations, or matrix algebra for systems of equations depends on your requirements. But the methods remain the same.
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.
What is the advantage that the method od substitution has over the graphing method of solving system of equations?
Substitution is a way to solve without graphing, and sometimes there are equations that are impossible or very difficult to graph that are easier to just substitute. Mostly though, it is a way to solve if you have no calculator or cannot use one (for a test or worksheet).
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?
