1.0 INTRODUCTION
A "system" of equations is a set or collection of equations that you deal with all together
at once. Linear equations (ones that graph as straight lines) are simpler than non-linear
equations, and the simplest linear system is one with two equations and two variables.
Think back to linear equations. For instance, consider the linear equationy = 3x 5. A
"solution" to this equation was anyx,y-point that "worked" in the equation. So (2, 1) was
a solution because, plugging in 2 forx:
3x 5 = 3(2) 5 = 6 5 = 1 =y
On the other hand, (1, 2) was not a solution, because, plugging in 1 forx:
3x 5 = 3(1) 5 = 3 5 = 2
which did not equaly (which was 2, for this point). Of course, in practical terms, you did
not find solutions to an equation by picking random points, plugging them in, and
checking to see if they "work" in the equation. Instead, you picked x-values and then
calculated the corresponding y-values. And you used this same procedure to graph the
equation. This points out an important fact: Every point on the graph was a solution to the
equation, and any solution to the equation was a point on the graph.
A system of linear equations can be solve by using three methods. They are Elimination,
Substitution and Graphing. When we solve by Elimination method we have to make the
coefficient of one the variable into equal and then add both the equations. Now one of the
variables will get cancel and then one of the variables is left out. After that, solve for the
left variable. Finally substitute the result of one of the variable in any one of the equation
we will get the result for another variable. When we solve by substitution method
substitute one of the equation in another and then solve. If we are solving by graphing
method draw a graph for both the equation in a single graph. The intersection point of the
lines is a solution for the given system of linear equation.

2.0 Elimination Method
In the elimination method for solving simultaneous equations, two equations are
simplified by adding them or subtracting them. This eliminates one of the variables so
that the other variable can be found.
To add two equations, add the left hand expressions and right hand expressions
separately. Similarly, to subtract two equations, subtract the left hand expressions from
each other, and subtract the right hand expressions from each other. The following
examples will make this clear.
Example 1: Consider these equations:
2x 5y = 1
3x + 5y = 14
The first equation contains a-5yterm, while the second equation contains a+5yterm.
These two terms will cancel if added together, so we will add the equations to eliminate
y.
To add the equations, add the left side expressions and the right side expressionsseparately.
2x 5y = 1+ 3x + 5y = + 14
(2x 5y) + (3x + 5y) = 1 + 14
Simplifying, -5y and +5y cancel out, so we have:
5x = 15
Therefore x is 3.
By substituting 3 for x into either of the two original equations we can find y.

Step 1 : Enter the linear equations to solve
Label the equations as follows:
equation 1 - 3p q = 11
equation 2 - 4p + 5q = -17
Step 2 : If necessary, prepare either or both equations for eliminating a
variable.
Decide which variable you are going to eliminate from the equations and whether you are
going to add the equations or subtract them.
For the example equations, we will multiply the first equation through by
5 and eliminate variable q by adding the both equation.
equation 1 - 3p q = 11
equation 2 - 4p + 5q = -17
To modify an equation, use a copy of the original equation.
For the example, copy the equation:
3p q = 11
To multiply the bottom equation by 5:
Multiplying by '5' and expanding both sides
5(3p q) = 11 x 5
Simplifying, both sides
15p 5 q = 55
Step 3 : Eliminate the first variable

Write the two equations that you are going to add or subtract to the bottom of the
working page, using the copying technique described above.
For the example, the last few lines of the display will now look like this:
Simplifying, both sides ...
15p 5q = 55
15p 5q = 55
4p + 5q = -17
Add the equations.
15p 5q = 55
+ 4p + 5q = -17
19p = 38
Simplify all. You will now have an equation in only one variable.
19p = 38 19
p = 2
Step 4 : Substitute to find the other variable

Azyyati bte A.Rahim 761022017628
4p + 5q = -17
Select the equation for the known variable.
For the example, select p= 2
You will now have an equation in the other variable. Solve this equation to find the value
of this other variable.
For the example, the equation is:
4p + 5q = -17
4(2) + 5q = -17
8 + 5q = -17
In this case, we add 4 to both sides and simplify:
5q = -17- 8
q = -255
q = -5
Step 5 : Validate the solutions by substitution
You can test your answers to make sure they are correct. Type both solutions with a
comma between them:
For the example, type: p = 2, q = -5
State one of the original equations to make it the target data set:
equation 1 - 4p + 5q = -17
4(2) + 5 (-5) = -17
8 -25 = -17
-17 = -17
equation 2 - 3p q = 11

Azyyati bte A.Rahim 761022017628
3(2) - (-5) = 11
6 + 5 = 11
11 = 11
If you get equations that are true in both cases, then your solutions are correct!
For the example, we get these equations:
-17 = -17
and
11 = 11
So the solutions:p = 2, q = -5 are correct.
3.0 Substitution Method
The method of solving "by substitution" works by solving one of the equations (you
choose which one) for one of the variables (you choose which one), and then plugging
this back into the other equation, "substituting" for the chosen variable and solving forthe other. Then you back-solve for the first variable. Here is how it works.
2x 3y = 2
4x + y = 24

Azyyati bte A.Rahim 761022017628
The idea here is to solve one of the equations for one of the variables, and plug this into
the other equation. It does not matter which equation or which variable you pick. There is
no right or wrong choice, the answer will be the same, regardless. But some choices may
be better than others.
4x +y = 24
y = 4x + 24
Now I'll plug this in ("substitute it") for "y" in the first equation, and solve forx:
2x 3(4x + 24) = 2
2x + 12x 72 = 2
14x = 70x = 5
Now I can plug thisx-value back into either equation, and solve fory. But since I already
have an expression for "y =", it will be simplest to just plug into this:
y = 4(5) + 24 = 20 + 24 = 4
Then the solution is (x,y) = (5, 4).

3.1 Procedure involved in solving the problem using the substitution method
Step 1 : Enter the linear equations to solve
Label the equations as follows:
equation 1 - 3p q = 11
equation 2 - 4p + 5q = -17
Step 2 : Solve one of the equations for one of the variable with a numerical
coefficient of 1, if possible, to try to avoid working with fraction.
equation 1 - 3p q = 11
-q = 11 - 3p
So, q = - 11 + 3p
Step 3 : Substitute the expression found in step 2 into the other equation,
yielding an equation, in terms of a single variable.
equation 2 - 4p + 5q = -17
q = - 11 + 3p 4p + 5(-11 +3p) = -17
4p 55 + 15p = -17
19p 55 = -17
19p = -17 + 55
19p = 38
p = 38 19
p = 2

p = 2 3 (2) q = 11
6 q = 11
-q = 11-6
-q = 5
q = -5
Step 5 : Validate the solutions by substitution
You can test your answers to make sure they are correct. Type both solutions with a

For the example, type: p = 2, q = -5
State one of the original equations to make it the target data set:

4(2) + 5 (-5) = -17
8 -25 = -17
-17 = -17
equation 2 - 3p q = 11
3(2) - (-5) = 11

4.1 Steps involved in calculating the volume of prism
The volume of any type of mass can be measured by how much space it takes up.
Volume is most often measured by using some kind of container and taking stock of how
much it can hold. The volume of a prism is measured as a three dimensional object, with
mass, as explained in the following steps.
The formula for such an equation is: v=L x W x H.

5.0 Summary of students view of the methods explained
By using the two methods is the elimination and substitution, the teacher gives students
the freedom to choose which way is more easily understood. Teachers will act as
instructors and mentors to students to choose according to their rules. Therefore, to obtain
feedback methods which are preferred by students, a group of students was given an
evaluation form to be filled and the questions are linear and volume of prisms to be
completed by the students. Students are also required to give a little review or comment
on the form. (Form and the student answers, please refer to appendix)
Based on the assessment carried out to a group of students consisted of 10 students, most
of them prefer the method of substitution against elimination. This finding is reflected in
Table 1.1 below. Comments given by students to state substitution method is easier and
clearer to understand. This is because this method does not require a lot of operations and
the way it works very simple. Substitution method using the existing equations to solve a
given problem without the need to multiply or divide first linear equation.
Finding a formula for the volume of the prism is very important in mathematics. Students
are also exposed to this formula while in primary school. So this is easy for students to
master these skills the better. Based on the reviews of my students are very interested in
the two methods introduced by me to find the volume of prisms. Some of them are not
exposed to a variety of methods to find the volume of prisms. however, they are more
comfortable using their control of the primary school. It can be seen in Table 1.2 below
where all the students in my research using the first method for finding the volume of
prisms.
Two methods are given a real big help because it shows that students in solving
mathematical problems, especially these equations there are several ways and is not tied
to one way. Through research done on 10 students showed that both methods actually
help the students because they have their own advantages. According to their measures in

solving linear equations and find the volume of the prism is given by the teacher was very
effective and help them in this topic.
To find the volume of the prism it is much easier with the steps given by the teacher. By
following the steps given they have no problem to find the volume of prisms. Students
were shown how to determine the height, width and length are given in the form of a
prism, it was indirectly introduced to students the concept of the volume or prism.
Apparently the students more easily understand mathematical concepts to be included in
the calculation steps and systematic progression.

6.0 Reflection on the method and steps
The first step to choosing a teaching method is to assess the students. This assessment can
be formal or informal. Formal assessments include standardized tests, tests from the
textbook orcurriculum being used, or teacher-created tests. These assessments can give
you an idea of the previous instruction that the students have received as well as their
academic level. The students in your class may have undergone various teaching methods
and quality of instruction in previous years.
As any good teacher knows, all students do not learn in the same way. In addition, it is
common for a class of students to be at a variety of levels in any particular subject.
Teachers need to use different teaching methods in order to reach all students effectively.A variety of teaching strategies, a knowledge of student levels, and an implementation of
which strategies are best for particular students can help teachers to know which teaching
methods will be most effective for their class.
They are usually not grouped by ability, but put in a group with children at a variety of
levels. The students are then given tasks to accomplish together. Teachers may need to
monitor these groups carefully, to make sure they are staying on task and that all students
are participating. This form of instruction also lends itself well to differentiation, because
the teacher can assign specific tasks to children at different ability levels.
Good teachers know their students. If you have been teaching a particular group of
students for some time, you probably already know quite a bit about their interests, ability
levels, and learning styles. If the group of students is new to you, you can make a point of
asking them, individually or in a group, about their interests and academic strengths.
Depending on the age of the children, they may also be able to write about this, or answer
some form of questionnaire about their hobbies, interests, previous instruction, strengths,
and weaknesses. Students generally enjoy talking about themselves and having their
teacher get to know them well, as it makes them feel special, as well as directing you in
choosing your teaching methods.

As a teacher I was able to introduce some method to my students to help them develop
mathematical concepts are further substantiated. Students are not necessarily tied to just
one method to solve mathematical problems. This is because in mathematics, he has
several methods that can be used to solve a given problem. Students can choose which
way they are easier to understand and convenient to take as a way of calculating them.
Teachers can only act as mentors and demonstration only.
The process of calculating a more regular basis to comprise the simple steps and
accompanied with examples to facilitate students' understanding of how such
calculations. These measures must include instructions that are given clear and easily
understood by students. It must be shaped progression from easy to difficult to attract
students to find the answer to the problem. If a student is to understand the process ofteaching and learning well, they will be more motivated to learn mathematics. They will
be more excited to learn mathematics more broadly.
Increased professionalism in teaching comes from reflective practice. Teachers who think
meta cognitively about what works for them, and what needs improvement, become more
thoughtful in their day-to-day implementation of instructional strategies and classroom
management techniques. Approaching one's own teaching from an action research stance
allows teachers to objectively pinpoint areas that interest them and that need work. The
following methods are suggested for incorporating more systematic reflection into the
teaching day. Both new and veteran teachers become more effective when they regularly
reflect on their own practices and set personal goals for professional development.
