6. Solving Systems of Equations by Graphing If you can graph a straight line, you can solve systems of equations graphically! The process is very easy. To solve a system of equations graphically, graph both equations and see where they intersect. The intersection point is the solution.

7. Example Solve by graphing: 4x-6y=12 2x+2y=6 Step 1: Put equations in slope intercept form to find slope (m) and y-intercept (b) and graph. 4x-6y=12 4x=6y+12 4x-12=6y 6y=4x-12 y=(4/6)x-(12/6) y=(2/3)x-2 slope = 2/3 y-intercept = -2 2x+2y=6 2y=-2x+6 y=(-2/2)x+(6/2) y=-x+3 slope=-1/1 y-intercept = 3

8. Example Continued: Graph the equations. The slope intercept method of graphing was used in this example. The point of intersection of the two lines (3,0) is the solution to the system of equations. This means that (3,0), when substituted into either equation, will make them both true.

9. Example 1-1a Solve the system of equations by graphing. Write each equation in slope-intercept form. The graphs appear to intersect at (4, 2).

10. Example 1-1a Check Substitute the coordinates into each equation. Answer: The solution of the system is (4, 2). Original equations Simplify. Replace x with 4 and y with 2.

11. Example 1-1b Solve the system of equations by graphing. Answer: (4, 1)

12. Example 1-2a Fund-raising A service club is selling copies of their holiday cookbook to raise funds for a project. The printer’s set-up charge is $200, and each book costs $2 to print. The cookbooks will sell for $6 each. How many cookbooks must the members sell before they make a profit? Let Cost of books iscost per bookplusset-up charge. y=2x2x+200

13. Example 1-2a Income from books is price per book times number of books. y=6x The graphs intersect at (50, 300). This is the break-even point. If the group sells less than 50 books, they will lose money. If the group sells more than 50 books, they will make a profit. Answer:

14. Example 1-2b The student government is selling candy bars. It cost $1 for each candy bar plus a $60 set-up fee. The group will sell the candy bars for $2.50 each. How many do they need to sell to break even? Answer: 40 candy bars

15. Consistent vs. Inconsistent Now, keep in mind that you are applying these to a system of linear equations. We say that a point is a "solution" to the system when it makes BOTH equations true, right? This is to say that there exists a point (or set of points) that "work" in one equation and also "work" in the other one. So we say that this point is CONSISTENT from one equation to the next. Now, keep in mind that you are applying these to a system of linear equations. We say that a point is a "solution" to the system when it makes BOTH equations true, right? This is to say that there exists a point (or set of points) that "work" in one equation and also "work" in the other one. So we say that this point is CONSISTENT from one equation to the next. On the other hand, if there are NO points that work in both, then we say that the equations are INCONSISTENT. NO numbers that work in one are consistent with the other. To sum up, a consistent system has at least one solution. An inconsistent system has NO solution at all.

16. Dependent vs. Independent When a system is "dependent," it means that ALL points that work in one of them ALSO work in the other one. Graphically, this means that one line is lying entirely on top of the other one, so that if you graphed both, you would really see only one line on the graph, since they are imposed on top of each other. One of them totally DEPENDS on the other one. When a system is "dependent," it means that ALL points that work in one of them ALSO work in the other one. Graphically, this means that one line is lying entirely on top of the other one, so that if you graphed both, you would really see only one line on the graph, since they are imposed on top of each other. One of them totally DEPENDS on the other one. When a system is "independent," it means that they are not lying on top of each other. There is EXACTLY ONE solution, and it is the point of intersection of the two lines. It's as if that one point is "independent" of the others. To sum up, a dependent system has INFINITELY MANY solutions. An independent system has EXACTLY ONE solution.

17. Example 1-3a Graph the system of equations and describe it as consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent. Write each equation in slope-intercept form.

18. Example 1-3a The graphs of the equations intersect at (2, – 3). Since there is one solution to this system, this system is consistent and independent. Answer:

19. Example 1-3b Graph the system of equations and describe it as consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent. Answer: consistent and independent

20. Example 1-4a Graph the system of equations and describe it as consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent. Since the equations are equivalent, their graphs are the same line.

21. Example 1-4a Any ordered pair representing a point on that line will satisfy both equations. So, there are infinitely many solutions. This system is consistent and dependent. Answer:

22. Example 1-4b Answer: consistent and dependent Graph the system of equations and describe it as consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent.

23. Example 1-5a Graph the system of equations and describe it as consistent and independent, consistent and dependent, or inconsistent. The lines do not intersect. Their graphs are parallel lines. So, there are no solutions that satisfy both equations. This system is inconsistent. Answer:

27. Lesson 2 Contents Example 1Solve by Using Substitution Example 2Compare Values Example 3Solve by Using Elimination Example 4Multiply, Then Use Elimination Example 5Inconsistent System

28. The Substitution Method The substitution method is used to eliminate one of the variables by replacement when solving a system of equations. Think of it as "grabbing" what one variable equals from one equation and "plugging" it into the other equation.

29. Example of Substitution Solve this system of equations and check: 3y - 2x = 11 y + 2x = 9 1. Solve one of the equations for either "x" or "y". This example solves the second equation for "y ". 3y - 2x = 11 y = 9 - 2x

30. Example of Substitution 2. Replace the "y" value in the first equation by what "y" now equals. Grab the "y" value and plug it into the other equation. 3y - 2x = 11 y = 9 - 2x 3(9 - 2x) - 2x = 11

31. Example of Substitution 3. Solve this new equation for "x". (27 - 6x) - 2x = 11 27 - 6x - 2x = 11 27 - 8x = 11 -8x = -16 x = 2

32. Example of Substitution 4. Place this new "x" value into either of the ORIGINAL equations in order to solve for "y". Pick the easier one to work with! y = 9 - 2(2) y = 9 - 4 y = 5

33. Example of Substitution 5. Check: substitute x = 2 and y = 5 into BOTH ORIGINAL equations. If these answers are correct, BOTH equations will be TRUE! 3y - 2x = 11 3(5) - 2(2) = 11 15 - 4 = 11 11 = 11 (check!) y + 2x = 9 5 + 2(2) = 9 5 + 4 = 9 9 = 9 (check!)

34. Example 2-1a Use substitution to solve the system of equations. Solve the first equation for x in terms of y. First equation Subtract 4y from each side.

35. Example 2-1a Substitute 26 – 4y for x in the second equation and solve for y. Second equation Subtract 26 from each side. Divide each side by –9. Now substitute the value for y in either of the original equations and solve for x. Answer: The solution of the system is (10, 4). First equation Replace y with 4. Simplify. Subtract 16 from each side. Substitute 26 – 4y for x.

36. Example 2-1b Answer: (5, 1) Use substitution to solve the system of equations.

37. Try These Solve each system of equations by substitution. 1.2x + y = 11 6x – 2y = -2 2. 5a – b = 17 3a + 2b = 5

38. Elimination Method Simultaneous equations got you baffled? Relax! Yo u can do it! Think of the adding or subtracting method as simply "eliminating" one of the variables to make your life easier.

39. Example of Elimination 1. Solve this system of equations and check: x - 2y = 14 x + 3y = 9

40. Example of Elimination a. First, be sure that the variables are "lined up" under one another. In this problem, they are already "lined up". x - 2y = 14 x + 3y = 9

41. Example of Elimination b. Decide which variable ("x" or "y") will be easier to eliminate. In order to eliminate a variable, the numbers in front of them (the coefficients) must be the same or negatives of one another. Looks like "x" is the easier variable to eliminate in this problem. x - 2y = 14 x + 3y = 9

42. Example of Elimination c. Now, subtract to eliminate the "x" variable. (Remember: when you subtract signed numbers, you change the signs and follow the rules for adding signed numbers.) x - 2y = 14 -x - 3y = - 9 - 5y = 5

43. Example of Elimination d. Solve this simple equation. -5y = 5 y = -1

44. Example of Elimination e. Plug "y = -1" into either of the ORIGINAL equations to get the value for "x". x - 2y = 14 x - 2(-1) = 14 x + 2 = 14 x = 12

45. Example of Elimination f. Check: substitute x = 12 and y = -1 into BOTH ORIGINAL equations. If these answers are correct, BOTH equations will be TRUE! x - 2y = 14 12 - 2(-1) = 14 12 + 2 = 14 14 = 14 (check!) x + 3y = 9 12 + 3(-1) = 9 12 - 3 = 9 9 = 9 (check!)

46. Example 2-3a Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. In each equation, the coefficient of x is 1. If one equation is subtracted from the other, the variable x will be eliminated. Subtract the equations.

47. Example 2-3a Now find x by substituting 4 for y in either original equation. Answer: The solution is (2, 4). Second equation Replace y with 4. Subtract 4 from each side.

48. Example 2-3b Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. Answer: (17, –4)

49. Example 2-4a Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 3. Then add the equations to eliminate the y variable. Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. Multiply by 3. Multiply by 2.

50. Example 2-4a Replace x with 3 and solve for y. Answer: The solution is (3, 2). First equation Replace x with 3. Multiply. Subtract 6 from each side. Divide each side by 3.

51. Example 2-4b Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. Answer: (–5, 4)

52. Example 2-5a Use multiplication to eliminate x. Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. Answer: Since there are no values of x and y that will make the equation true, there are no solutions for the system of equations. Multiply by 2.

53. Example 2-5b Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. Answer: There are no solutions for this system of equations.

54. Try These Solve each system of equations by elimination. 1.x + y = 7 2x + y = 11 2. 6g – 8h = 50 4g + 6h = 22

67. Example 3-3a Medicine Medical professionals recommend that patients have a cholesterol level below 200 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) of blood and a triglyceride level below 150 mg/dL. Write and graph a system of inequalities that represents the range of cholesterol levels and trigyceride levels for patients. Let c represent the cholesterol levels in mg/dL. It must be less than 200 mg/dL. Since cholesterol levels cannot be negative, we can write this as Let t represent the triglyceride levels in mg/dL. It must be less than 150 mg/dL. Since triglyceride levels also cannot be negative, we can write this as

68. Example 3-3a Graph all of the inequalities. Any ordered pair in the intersection of the graphs is a solution of the system. Answer:

69. Example 3-3b Safety The speed limits while driving on the highway are different for trucks and cars. Cars must drive between 45 and 65 miles per hour, inclusive.

Graph the following system of inequalities. Name the coordinates of the vertices of the feasible region. Find the maximum and minimum values of the function for this region.

77. Example 4-1a Step 2 Use a table to find the maximum and minimum values of f(x, y). Substitute the coordinates of the vertices into the function. Answer:The vertices of the feasible region are (–2, 4), (5, –3), and (5, 4). The maximum value is 21 at (5, –3). The minimum value is –14 at (–2, 4). (x, y)(x, y) 3x – 2y f(x, y) (–2, 4) 3( – 2) – 2(4) – 14 (5, –3) 3(5) – 2(–3) 21 (5, 4) 3(5) – 2(4) 7

79. Example 4-2a Graph the system of inequalities. There are only two points of intersection, (–2, 0) and (0, –2). Graph the following system of inequalities. Name the coordinates of the vertices of the feasible region. Find the maximum and minimum values of the function for this region.

Although f(–2, 0) is –4, it is not the maximum value since there are other points that produce greater values. For example, f(2, 1) is 7 and f(3, 1) is 10. It appears that because the region is unbounded, f(x, y) has no maximum value. Answer:The vertices are at (–2, 0) and (0, –2). There is no maximum value. The minimum value is –6 at (0, –2).
