  1. 5 minutes Warm-Up Solve. 1) y = 3x - 2 2) 5x – 2y = 4 2x + 5y = 7 2x + 4y = 16

  2. Using Systems of Equations Objectives: To solve problems using systems of equations

  3. Example 1 Translate into a system of equations and solve. The Yellow Bus company owns three times as many mini-buses as regular buses. There are 60 more mini-buses than regular buses. How many of each does Yellow Bus own? Let m be the number of mini-buses Let r be the number of regular buses m = 3r m = r + 60 m = 3r 3r = r + 60 m = 3(30) 2r = 60 m =90 r = 30 30 regular buses, 90 mini-buses

  4. Practice Translate into a system of equations and solve. An automobile dealer sold 180 vans and trucks at a sale. He sold 40 more vans than trucks. How many of each did he sell?

  5. Example 2 Translate into a system of equations and solve. Bob is 6 years older than Fred. Fred is half as old as Bob. How old are they? Let b be the age of Bob Let f be the age of Fred b = f + 6 b = f + 6 b = 2f b = (6) + 6 f + 6 = 2f 6 = f b = 12 Bob is 12. Fred is 6.

  6. Example 3 Translate into a system of equations and solve. Fran is two years older than her brother. Twelve years ago she was twice as old as he was. How old are they now? f f - 12 b - 12 b f = b + 2 b = 14 f – 12 = 2(b – 12) f = b + 2 f = 14 + 2 (b + 2) – 12 = 2(b – 12) f = 16 b – 10 = 2b – 24 b = 2b – 14 Fran is 16; brother is 14

  7. Practice Translate into a system of equations and solve. Wilma is 13 years older than Bev. In nine years, Wilma will be twice as old as Bev. How old is Bev?
