Create a matrix of the coefficients of each equation. The solutions to the equations should make up the rightmost column of the matrix. Then, row reduce the matrix until you are able to rewrite the equations and solve them. The matrix should be a 4x5 matrix (4 rows and 5 columns) for four equations with four variables. This is known as a system of equations.

How do you do math substitution?
Mathematical substitution is the process of using one equation to solve for multiple variables. For example: Equation 1: x + y = 4 Equation 2: 2x + y = 16 Using equation 1, solve for y: y = 4 - x <-- Plug this into equation 2. This is substitution because you are replacing y in equation 2 with what y is equal to in equation 1. 2x + y = 16 ----> 2x + (4 - x) = 16 Now you can solve for x: x + 4 = 16; x = 12 You can then substitute the value of x back into the equation that is solved for y: y = 4 - 12; y = -8 Check both equations: Equation 1: -8 + 12 = 4; 4 = 4 (Correct) Equation 2: 2(12) + (-8) = 16; 24 - 8 = 16; 16 = 16 (Correct) We have successfully used substitution to solve for two different variables, x and y.

Solve :p+5=9?
This is a simple algebraic equation. To solve for p, you need to isolate the variable (p) on one side of the equation. Here are the steps to solve the equation: p + 5 = 9 Subtract 5 from both sides p = 4 So the value of p that makes the equation true is 4.

what is a 2-step equation ( example please..)?
A two-step equation is an equation that requires two steps to solve We must eliminate any constant that is on the same side as the variable first To solve, use the inverse operations to isolate the variable by itself Remember whatever you do to one side, you must do to the other
