Key Concepts

System of Linear Equations

Systems of linear equations consist of multiple equations that share common variables and are solved simultaneously to find values that satisfy all the equations. These systems are a fundamental topic in algebra and can be approached through various methods such as substitution, addition (elimination), and graphing.

Addition (Elimination) Method

The addition method, also known as the elimination method, is a technique for solving systems of linear equations by adding or subtracting equations to eliminate one of the variables. This method simplifies the system to a single variable equation, making it easier to solve step by step.
