The Substitution Method
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
The substitution method solves one equation for a variable and substitutes the expression into the other, leaving one equation in one unknown.
Show
From x + y = 7, write y = 7 − x; feed it to x − y = 3 and the y disappears: x − (7 − x) = 3.
Builds on
- Nothing — this is a starting point.
Unlocks
- Nothing yet depends on this.
