equation is an equation which is the highest power of the variable is always 1).

Example-3: Write each equation in slope-intercept form, then find the slope and y-intercept.

Note-3: Sometimes two points are given, we must find the equation in slope-intercept form. We
follow these steps 1- Find the slope (m) 2- substitute the values in the equation 𝑦 − 𝑦1 = 𝑚(𝑥 − 𝑥1 ).
Example: Write the equation in slope-intercept form, passing through the given points.

Important note: There are two types of questions:
1- The equation is given, we have to find out the slope and the point.
2- The slope and the point are given, we have to write the equation.
Example: Identify a point that the line passes through and the slope of the line.

3-7 Linear Equations system. P.120
A Linear Equations system is a set of two or more linear equations containing two or more variables, and its
solution is an ordered pair that satisfies each equation.
Note−1: When you say an ordered pair is a solution of an equation, it means it makes both sides are equal.
Note − 2:If the ordered pair did not satisfy one of the equations, then it is not a solution of the linear system.
Example-1: Tell whether the ordered pair is a solution of the given system.
𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 6
A/ (4,1) ; {
𝑥−𝑦 =3
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
𝑦 = 2𝑥 − 1
.{
𝑦 = −𝑥 + 5
The point (2,3) is where the two lines intersect and it is a solution of both equations, so
(2,3) is the solution of the system.
Note−5: To solve linear system by substitution, always choose the easiest equation and substitute in
the other equation.
