Solving Systems of Linear Equations

a system of linear equations

A system of linear equations is a group of linear equations that are written in the same variables.  The solution to a system is the ordered pair that satisfies its equations.  In this module, you will learn three strategies that you can use to determine the solution to a system of linear equations.  You will also learn how you can verify the solution to a system.
