Systems of linear equations with two variables commonly follow the format: ax + by = c and dx + ey = f. You can solve these using substitution, elimination, or graphical interpretation. For instance, consider the system x + y = 5 and x – y = 1. Adding the two equations gives 2x = 6, so x = 3. Substituting x = 3 back into x + y = 5 yields y = 2. Systems of linear equations model various scenarios—calculating the intersection of supply and demand curves, planning mixture problems, or analyzing motion. A solid understanding of these solutions is essential for real-world planning and higher-level math endeavors.
