Objectives:
• Solve linear equations for a specific
variable, and
• Solve linear equations for a given domain
• What’s linear?
Assignment

Definition of the solution of
an equation in two variables
• If a true statement results when the
numbers in an ordered pair are substituted
into an equation in two variables, then the
ordered pair is a solution of the equation
More
• Since the solutions of an equation in two
variables are ordered pairs, such an
equation describes a relation. The set of
values of x is the domain of the relation.
The set of corresponding values of y is the
range of the relation.
Ex. 1: Solve y = 2x +3 if the domain is
{-5, -3, -1, 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9}
x
2x + 3
y
(x, y)
-5
2(-5) + 3 = -10 + 3 = -7

2(-3) +3 = -6 + 3 = -3
-3

2(-1) + 3 = -2 + 3 = 1

The solution set is (x, y) column
Ex. 2: Solve 3y + 6x = 12 if the domain is
{-4, -3, -2, 2, 3, 4}
3y + 6x = 12
3y = -6x + 12
First solve for y:
y = -2x + 4
x
-2x + 4
y
(x, y)

-2(-4) + 4 = 8 + 4 = 12

-2(-2) + 4 = 4 + 4 = 8

-2(2) + 4 = -4 + 4 = 0

-2(3) + 4 = -6 + 4 = -2
-2

The solution set is (x, y) column
Homework problems
#4,5 are table of values to complete
#6-8/13-15 are multiple choice.
#9-12/16-23 are solve for the variable
indicated
#24-41 are given that domain is, then solve
each equation for the range.
You need a ruler to make tables or be
careful making them.
