About this video
👉Learn how to solve a system of linear equations from a word problem. A system of equations is a set of more than one equations which are to be solved simultaneously. A word problem is a real world simulation of a mathematical concept. The solution to a system of equation is the set of values of the variables that satisfies all the equations in the system.
To solve a system of equation word problems, we first define the variables and then extract the equations from the word problems. We can then solve the system using graphing, elimination, or substitution methods.
