1. Systems of Equations – Lesson 1

2. Want to Rent a Movie?
You and your friend each purchased identical subscriptions to an online video rental site. When you joined, you each paid the one-time membership processing fee. You also paid a flat rate for each movie that you downloaded. By the end of the first month, you had downloaded 8 movies and paid $16.50, while your friend had downloaded only 6 movies and paid $14.00.
What was the one-time membership processing fee?
What was the per-movie rental fee?

3. Introduction
A system of linear equations consists two or more linear equations.
A solution of a system of linear equations is an ordered pair that is a solution to each equation in the system.

4. Solving Systems - Elimination
Write each equation in standard form
Multiply one or both equations by the appropriate constant(s).
Add the two equations together.
Solve the resulting equation.
Substitute this value for the appropriate variable in either of the original equations, and solve for that variable.
Write the solution as an ordered pair.
Check your solution.
