a system. Each method has strengths & weaknesses
Method
Strengths

Graphical
 Solutions are displayed
visually. Works with any
system that can be graphed.
 Inexact when solutions involve
numbers that are not integers or
are very large and off the graph.
Substitution
 Always yields exact solutions.
 Easy to use when a variable
is alone on one side of an
equation.
 Introduces extensive
computations with fractions
when solving more complicated
systems.
 Solutions are not graphically

1. Read the problem as many times as
needed to understand it thoroughly.
Pay close attention to the questions
asked to help identify the quantity the
variable(s) should represent. In other
Words, FAMILIARIZE yourself with the

4. Check
•
If one angle is 40° and the other is 140°,
then the sum of the measures is 180°.
Thus the angles are supplementary.
If 20° is added to three times the smaller
angle, we have 3(40°) + 20° = 140°,
which is the measure of the other angle.
The numbers check.

One angle measures 40°

a period of t years with interest rate r
(expressed as a decimal) computed
yearly, then the total interest paid at the
end of t years is
I  P  r t
 Interest computed with this formula is
called simple interest. When interest is
computed yearly, the rate r is called an
annual interest rate

Example  Simple Interest
 Ms. Jeung invests a total of $10,000 in
Bonds from blue-chip and technology
Companies. At the end of a year, the
blue-chips returned 12% and the
technology stocks returned 8% on the
original investments.
 How much was invested in each type of
Bond if the total interest earned was
$1060?

Familiarize:
We are asked to find two amounts:
•
that invested in blue-chip Bonds
•
that invested in technology Bonds.
If we know how much was invested in
blue-chip Bonds, then we know that
the rest of the $10,000 was invested in
technology Bonds.
