00:01 Okay, two more systems here.
00:01 We're asked to decide the appropriate or the most convenient method to solve them between substitution and elimination.
00:08 Okay, looking at this first system on the left, the equation at the top stands out to me is already being solved for one of the variables.
00:16 It's already y equals.
00:18 Again, that is the big clue that that's probably going to make solving by substitution a lot easier.
00:25 So i'm going to do substitution on that one because all i have to do is dump that top equation right in that...
