For most of this unit we'll be concerned with linear systems of equations, or systems of equations in which all the equations are linear. These systems are nice because we can graph each equation a...

Now, of course, comes the big question: if we're asked to solve a system of linear equalities and not told how, which method do we use? Oh, sorry. No, we're not going to ask you to prom. We meant t...

Lots of word problems can be solved with systems of linear equations. However, before we bother with those, let's look at some word problems that describe single lines, and we're not referring to o...

The word problems we looked at in the previous section were obvious. They practically shouted out, "Look! I'm a word problem and I'm talking about two lines!'' Aside from their outbursts being need...
