Word Problem!Oh No! Your car has broken down! You don't like
walking so you call the local garage to find out what they will charge you to fix it. The mechanic tells you that they charge a flat fee of $100 to use the diagnostic computer to find the trouble plus $30 per hour for labor.
a) Write a linear equation that will predict the cost of
repairing your car. b) Use the equation to find out how much you will have
to pay if the repairs take 6 hours.
Lesson 1.f Write and Solve Systems of Equations.
In this section we will …Use technology to solve systems of equationsSolve systems of equations by graphing.Solve systems of equations by using
substitution and eliminationDetermine whether a system of equations has
one solution, no solutions or infinitely many solutions
Set up a system of equations to model a real world situation
Find the solution to a real world situation by solving a system of equations
What do you already know about …systems of equations?A system of equations is two or more
equations that together define a relationship between variables.

What does solving a system of equations mean?
The solution or solutions are where the lines intersect.
There are three types.
Parallel lines
Intersecting lines
Same (Coincident) lines

You try:
How do we graph lines?
slope-intercept form. Standard Form
Example 1 Where do these lines intersect?
1. Write each equation in slope-intercept form or find the x and y intercepts.
2. Graph both lines3. Check your solution
Let’s Graph!: Example 2Where do these lines intersect?
x + y = 2x + y = 6
Example 3: Where do these lines intersect?
Example 4:Where do these lines intersect?
x – 2y = 0y = 2x - 3
