Linear systems in two unknowns

Throughout Linear Algebra, we’ll be really interested in solving systems of linear equations, or linear systems. A linear system is a system of equations, defined for a set of unknown variables, where each of the variables is linear (the variables are first degree, or raised to the power of 1).

There are three ways to solve systems of linear equations: substitution, elimination, and graphing. Substitution will have you substitute one equation into the other; elimination will have you add or subtract the equations to eliminate a variable; graphing will have you sketch both curves to visually find the points of intersection.
