Unit 5: Simultaneous Equations. Mathematics 4th E.S.O. Teacher: Miguel Angel Hernández Lorenzo. UNIT 5: SIMULTANEOUS EQUATIONS (SYSTEMS OF EQUATIONS) Simultaneous linear equations (Systems of linear equations): A system of linear equations is a collection of linear equations with the same variables. axby=c a ' xb ' y=c ' } This is a system of two linear equations with two variables. Solving a system of equations means finding the values of the variables that make all the equations true at the same time. Example: 2x−3y=5 x5y=9 } The solution to this system is x=4 and y=1. Number of solutions of a two-variable system of equations: When you are solving systems, you are, graphically, finding intersection of lines. (Remember that the graph of a linear equation, axby=c , is a straight line, and its points are the solution of the equation). For two-variables system, there are three possible types of solutions: CASE 1: Independent Systems: Example: 2x y=5 x4y=6 } The two lines cross at exactly one point. This point is the only solution of the system. These systems are called independent systems. P(2,1) x+4y=6 2x+y=5 1 Unit 5: Simultaneous Equations. Mathematics 4th E.S.O. Teacher: Miguel Angel Hernández Lorenzo. CASE 2: Inconsistent Systems: Example: 2x y=4 4x2y=2 } Since parallel line never cross, the system has no solution. These systems are called inconsistent systems. 2x+y=4 4x+2y=2 CASE 3: Dependent systems: Example: 2x3y=3 4x6y=6 } The two lines are the same line. Any point of the line is solution to the system. These systems are called dependent systems. 2x+3y=3 4x+6y=6 2 Unit 5: Simultaneous Equations. Mathematics 4th E.S.O. Teacher: Miguel Angel Hernández Lorenzo. Your Turn 1.

Mathematics 4th E.S.O. f) x− y=5 3x y=3 Teacher: Miguel Angel Hernández Lorenzo. } Solving simultaneous equations: 1. The Substitution Method: Find the value of one unknown in either of the given equation and substitute this value in the other equation. Example: x2y=3 2x−3y=6 } 2. The “Equating” Method: Find the values of one unknown in both equations and both values are equal. Example: 2x3y=3 3x−5y=14 } 5 Unit 5: Simultaneous Equations. Mathematics 4th E.S.O. Teacher: Miguel Angel Hernández Lorenzo. 3. The Elimination Method: It consists in adding equations together to eliminate variables. Sometimes you have to add equations by a number before you add them. The goal is to end up with one equation that has just one variable. Then, you can use substitution method to find out the value of the other variable. Example: 3x4y=17 2x5y=16 } Your Turn 1. Use the substitution method to solve the following systems of equations: a) x5y=7 3x−5y=11 b) 5x y=8 3x− y=11 } } 6 Unit 5: Simultaneous Equations.

On a certain day, 2.200 people enter the fair and $5.050 is collected. How many children and how many adults went to the fair? 6. The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 7. When the digits are reversed, the number is increased by 27. Find the number. 7. A landscaping company placed two orders with a nursery. The first order was 13 bushes and 4 trees, and totalled $487. The second order was for 6 bushes and 2 trees, and totalled $232. The bill does not list the per-item price. What is the cost of one bush and of one tree? 9 Unit 5: Simultaneous Equations.

If he passes two coins from the right hand to the left hand, there will be the same amount of coins in both hands. If he passes three coins from the left hand to the right hand, he will have double the amount of coins in his right hand than in his left hand. At the beginning, how many coins did the boy have in each hand? 9. Find the ages of two people knowing that ten years ago, the age of the first person was four times the age of the second person, and in twenty years, the age of the first person will be the double of the age of the second person. 10.
