Three Ways to Solve a System Reference Sheet
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Three Ways to Solve a System Reference Sheet" is written for 8th Grade (Ages 13-14). It also works a grade below or above, as a tool for a student who is ready for it or a quick refresher for an older one.


8th grade math resource: one system, 2x + y = 7 and x minus y = negative 1, solved by graphing, substitution and elimination, plus three cases. Part of our reference sheets systems of equations collection.
How do I use this resource?
Use the guided notes during instruction and keep the reference sheet in a notebook. The reference sheet also works as a check while students do the method sheets.
What students will practice
- Students will compare graphing, substitution and elimination on the same system.
- Students will check the solution (2, 3) in both equations.
- Students will review the cases of one, no and infinitely many solutions.

What is the Three Ways to Solve a System Reference Sheet?
⌄
One system, 2x + y = 7 and x minus y = negative 1, solved by graphing, substitution and elimination, plus three cases.
Can I use the Three Ways to Solve a System Reference Sheet at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for 8th Grade systems of equations, and it works the same at home or at school. At home a student can print it and keep it with their school work. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
What is on the three ways reference sheet?
⌄
One system, 2x + y = 7 and x minus y = negative 1, solved by graphing, substitution and elimination, all giving (2, 3). It also shows the check and the three solution cases.
How are guided notes used?
⌄
Students fill in key ideas, finish three worked examples, then solve one system with each method. The notes come with an answer key.
Do the reference sheets have answer keys?
⌄
The guided notes have an answer key. The three ways reference sheet is a finished example, so it does not need one.
