Show transcript
It is possible to find a solution that satisfies two equations with two unknowns by trial and error. A more efficient method is to combine the two equations to create a third valid equation . If the third equation contains only one unknown, it is easy to solve . Once you know one of the unknowns, you can substitute to find the other .
