A system of linear equations is two or more linear equations that use the same variables. Systems of linear equations can be solved by graphing the corresponding relations, and determining where the lines intersect. This method is very visual. Unfortunately, graphing may take some time and is also limited to determining approximate solution values for many systems. The next lesson explores a method of solving a system of linear equations algebraically (without graphing).
