Lesson Goals

  • Solve systems of two equations involving two variables using substitution.

  • Solve systems of two equations involving two variables using elimination.

  • Understand the result when algebraic methods are used to solve linear systems with no solutions or systems with infinite solutions.

Try This

Line A passes through the point where \(3x-2y+5=0\) and \(y-5=3(x-4)\) intersect, and has an \(x\)-intercept of \(5\). What is the slope of Line A?
