📄 8th Grade Math (Algebra I): Systems of Linear Equations Worksheet

📌 1. True / False

1. A system of linear equations consists of two or more linear equations with the same variables.

2. A system of linear equations can only have one solution.

3. The solution to a system of linear equations is the point where the graphs of the equations intersect.

4. The substitution method involves adding or subtracting equations to eliminate a variable.

5. If the graphs of two linear equations are parallel lines, the system has no solution.

✏️ 2. Fill in the Blanks

1. A set of two or more linear equations with the same variables is called a of linear equations.
2. When solving a system of equations by , you graph each equation and find the point of intersection.
3. The method involves solving one equation for a variable and then substituting that expression into the other equation.
4. If a system of linear equations has infinitely many solutions, the graphs of the equations are lines.
5. The method is useful when one variable in both equations has coefficients that are opposites or the same.

🔗 3. Matching
