Steps for Solving by the Equalization Method
1. We solve for the same unknown in both equations
2. We equalize the expressions, which allows us to obtain an equation with one unknown
3. We solve the equation
4. We substitute the value obtained into either of the two expressions in which the other unknown appeared solved
5. The two values obtained constitute the solution of the system
Example of a System of Equations Solved by the Equalization Method
1. We solve, for example, for the unknown
from the first and second equations:
2. We equalize the expressions:
3. We solve the equation:
4. We substitute the value of y into either of the 2 equations (in either of the 2, the result should be the same):
Or:
5. Solution:
