Systems of Equations
Systems of equations involve two or more equations with multiple variables that must be solved simultaneously. Students learn to solve systems by graphing, substitution, and elimination.
Systems of equations model situations with multiple constraints or relationships, common in business, science, and optimization problems. They're fundamental to linear algebra and higher mathematics.
Teaching Tips
Teach all three methods (graphing, substitution, elimination) and discuss when each is most efficient. Graph to visualize solution as intersection point. Model setting up systems from word problems carefully. Emphasize checking solutions in both equations.
Test system-solving using multiple methods. Include word problems requiring students to set up systems. Ask students to interpret solutions in context. Present special cases (no solution, infinite solutions) and ask students to identify and explain.
