Systems of equations overview
This video series covers everything you need to know about systems of equations, through stories about trolls, kings, and cupcakes!
Introduction to systems of equations
Learn what "systems of equations" are, what counts as a solution to such a system, and how we can use graphs to solve them.
Equivalent systems of equations and the elimination method
Learn about the elimination method, which is a way manipulate systems of equations in order to solve them algebraically. This is actually very similar to the way we manipulate single equations in order to solve them!
Solving systems of equations with substitution
Learn about the substitution method, which is another way to manipulate systems of equations in order to solve them.
Manipulating expressions with unknown variables
Learn how to rewrite expressions with variables whose values are unknown, by using another information about those variables. For example, given that a+b=0, express a*b in terms of b alone.
Number of solutions to systems of equations
Learn about the possible number of solutions of systems of linear equations. Spoiler: There can be a single solution, zero solutions, or infinite solutions. These different cases define the distinctions between "consistent" and "inconsistent" systems, and between "dependent" and "independent" systems.
Systems of equations word problems
Now that we are able to solve any kind of system we are given, it's time to use that knowledge to solve some word problems.
Solving equations by graphing (Algebra 2 level)
Learn how to approximate the solution to any equation by using the power of graphs.
Systems with three variables
Learn how to make the most out of the familiar algebraic techniques in order to solve systems of three equations with three variables.
