standard_description: Understand the meaning of the equal sign, and determine if equations involving addition and subtraction are true or false. For example, which of the following equations are true and which are false? 6 = 6, 7 = 8 – 1, 5 + 2 = 2 + 5, 4 + 1 = 5 + 2.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Without solving the systems, explain why the following system must have the same solution.
{"table": [{"_attributes": {"class": ["table"], "style": "width:100%"}, "tbody": [{"tr": [{"td": [{"p": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "System 1:"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "span": [{"_attributes": {"class": ["math-tex"]}, "_value": "$${4x-5y=13 }$$"}]}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "span": [{"_attributes": {"class": ["math-tex"]}, "_value": "$${3x+6y=11}$$"}]}]}, {"p": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "System 2:"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "span": [{"_attributes": {"class": ["math-tex"]}, "_value": "$${8x-10y=26}$$"}]}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "span": [{"_attributes": {"class": ["math-tex"]}, "_value": "$${x-11y=2}$$"}]}]}]}]}]}]}
Problem 2
Solve the system of equations by writing a new system that eliminates one of the variables.
$${3x+2y=4}$$
$${4x+7y=1}$$
