I took the risk on doing this technique in our Calculus exam, and it saved me a lot of time. I practiced your technique, sir. Afterwards, I used the same old process (Elimination-Subtitution) and yeah, I got the same answer.
Obviously, it's based on a mathematical theorem. Cramer's rule, which is something you learn pretty quickly in a linear algebra class, as he mentioned. The only thing that was not mentioned, however, is that if det(A)=0, you cannot apply Cramer's rule, where A is the coefficient matrix of the linear system. (That is, the matrix is nonsingular and the linear map represented by the matrix is an isomorphism.) That would mean that there are cases wherein this method would not work. In fact, there are infinitely many linear systems that this trick would not work on. Also, he did not mention that the system of equations must be strictly linear.
I think the only issue with this technique is maths tests tend to mark on method rather than answer and even though this law can be valid and has proof attached to it. It isn't mentioned in the work or even stated what Kramer's law is. ( I know he says it but it isn't in the actual writing) so as a result it is unclear whether you had used proper logic to work out the equation or had found the answer randomly and made up an equation to try and show how you got the answer. It seems unlikely but I have done this my GCSEs years ago. I accidentally found the answer doing no work and made up a solution. In this video he does have a quick method but I'm reality he would need to write a lot more for it to be a viable answer in exams. I had a lecturer which would have given me a single mark for answering a question this way so be careful
During the pandemic I've decided to get into Math as a hobby. I've always wanted to just never had the time. This is an awesome trick. Thanks for sharing. Anybody have any suggestions. I'm building up to Physics.
Oh my gosh, thank you so so much. I am from Singapore and I’m secondary 2 or grade 8, the whole textbook was algebra, and you helped me so much, oh my gosh I can’t thank you enough!
In India, we are taught this like a formula. This method is called the cross-multiplication method. The formula goes like this. For the standard form of system of equations a1x + b1y + c1 = 0 and a2x + b2y + c2 = 0, x/b1c2-b2c1 = y/c1a2-c2a1 = 1/a1b2-a2b1 This method is not exact to the method you said, but it is indeed similar...
@@ggman4544 If you see closely, you can very well take out the x and y in terms of the coefficients of the equation. It is just simple to list the values of the coefficients substitute and solve, no hurdles.!
I figured this out completely on my own when I was 18. I was going through my College Algebra book and was obsessed with finding shortcuts to solve things faster.
im crying you are so amazing, ever since grade 7 i have had terrible teachers so i struggled with basics and now i am in gr 11 and i have came so far with you videos .
Thank you so much Brian. Found this video last minute before my tests in Maths. It is very useful and I definetely subscribed. Thank you so much, Really appreciate it.
Yes virtual doesn’t teach well but majority of teachers don’t know this trick so either way you most likely won’t be taught this in school Math teachers don’t like cheap tricks in math for some reason
For anyone curious: You can have this written down as Ax + By = C, and also Dx + Ey = F as the second equation. If you isolate y in the first equation, you’ll end up with this equation: y = (C - Ax)/B Now, if you plug that value of y in the second equation, you take these steps: Dx + E[(C - Ax)/B] = F Dx + (EC - EAx)/B = F (DBx + EC - EAx)/B = F DBx - EAx + EC = FB (DB - EA)x + EC = FB (DB - EA)x = FB - EC x = (FB - EC)/(DB - EA) x = (BF - EC)/(DB - AE) And that’s exactly what’s done here
U probably won't see this but this helped me soo much I've been really struggling on algebra because most things my teacher says make no sense so thank u
Wow I really enjoyed this video. I actually just finished linear algebra and solving systems of equations was a lot easier in matrix form. I wish I would have known about this back when I took algebra in high school. Love your videos. Keep up the good work.
This seems like more rules to memorize without understanding why it works. I dont think its worth memorizing this for such a small use case. I would rather do a tiny bit more work and be more confident in my answer. But cool trick nevertheless.
Prove it to yourself by solving with the substitute technique the set of equations : ax + by = m cx + dy = n You'll realise you'll end up with formulas for x and y that are exactly the ones he uses in the video.
It is a cool trick but you hit the allegorical nail on the proverbial head that it's just a mindless automaton method to memorize, it's gets to the answer but provides zero insight. Brian really disappointed me here.
@@sokatunier8607 The question is not if it's true. Yes, of course it is. But you DO have to remember the steps. The normal methods involve no memory work. If your memory is great, bully you. My memory is awful but I always did best at Maths because I could figure out most of it on the back of a very few remembered facts. And if you're fast with calculations, it takes you very little time to work out simultaneous equations in the normal way.
I was taught about it since I was in primary (elementary) school. But I never know its name until I got into university where I took up Math as my major. It felt incredible at that point to finally understand the mechanism behind this formula. I will not disclose its name but let your curiosity run its course if you so wish
We were taught this in elementary school, it's called CROSS MULTIPLICATION METHOD. We got 4 methods:- 1. Substitution method where we find the value of one variable and substitute it in the other equation. 2. Elimination method where we try to eliminate one of the variables by substracting, dividing, adding, or multiplying the equation. (My favorite) 3. Shifting method where we find the value of one particular variable (say x) from both the equation and then equate it with each other and solve for it. 4. Cross Multiplication method The thing is that you just showed it directly but we had to do certain steps before that. Nice Video BTW
Having already done solving simultaneous equations using matrices - literally, explicitly using the matrices - I immediately went “so he’s doing the matrix stuff, just implicitly” before you even said. Still a cool trick to know.
I love this man soooooooo much right now. This is so freaking SIMPLE!!! How many videos have I watched and NONE of them put it so simply. This will save me a lot of time on my math homework.
So I'm not great at math but I remember when I was little my dad taught me all about matrices and determinants for no reason and so this trick made a little more sense when you told it.
I think using the original order of calculating what would be the "determinate"( instead of reversing the order) is yet easier in terms of visualizing the simple cross-multiplication involved. In any case, just another tool I'll put in my tutoring toolbox. One of my favorites is for fiddling the turning points (relative max and min) for a cubic function. We all know the quadratic formula, well the formula for the X-values of the turning points of the cubic AX^3+BX^2+CX+D is practically the same. Instead of B^2-4AC inside the root, it's B^2-3AC and instead of dividing by2A, divide by 3A. If "A' is positive, the smaller X belongs to the relative MAXIMUM and the larger X belongs to the relative MINIMUM. If "A" is negative, vice versa. This formula gives EXACT answers instead of the approximations found by graphing on a graphing calculator. It's pretty cool. Cheers. And LOVE your channel!
When I found out about cramers method and also inverting matrices through cofactors I felt like I found something I was missing for so long in my other classes. I also think it's interesting that if you divide by 0, there's either no solution or infinitely many solutions through the invertible matrix theorem.
Basic idea of algebra, but very essential ones. Learnt a lot from this video. The way you present the lesson make it looked so easy. The explanation also very smooth and easy to follow. so happy find this video. Thank you very much.
I mean I guess it could be faster, but if you're fast at solving with elimination, it could work better. Either way, it's a neat trick to know and I will use it sometimes
As a math teacher for 42 years I must say WOW! This is such a neat method that should be added to the other ways a system of 2 linear equations can be solved. What is needed is an appropriate name for this method. How about the XXX method or Crossing the System or ______. Cheers
Nah man thank you so so so much, I spent 5 hours trying to learn how to solve system of equations using matrices and I learned right away how to solve it right after watching your vid.
Seems more confusing than (1) multiply top equation by 2, giving 2x+4y=22, (2) subtract eq 2 from eq 1, so 2x+4y-(2x+y)=22-10. 2x cancels out, so 3y=12, y=4.
actually, in India cramers rule is taught to us in 10th grade, so as soon as you begin multiplying that way i understood you were finding D, Dx and Dy. Awesome trick tho
What's great about math is that it always works every time (provided you meet the conditions of the theorem, situation, and do all the steps correctly). I do have a few more tricks around my channel, mostly concerned with calculus. Best of luck!
My problem is that I just forget how to do stuff like this, it’s fine in other classes but only in math I tend to forget formulas or how to solve. Do you have any tricks for that? Thanks
Seriously, I didn't understand anything Guess I forgot everything from highschool Is this for beginners? BC I think I should start worrying about myself lol Do u have lessons for complete beginners on Algebra

Dude... how did you do this video. Even if it’s reversed image or mirroring editing option. You would half to be behind a piece of glass or something transparent writing on the other side but even then if you reverse the image or mirror is it the right or the left hand being used
This method is taught in schools in India Infact it is even in the maths book and compulsory to learn < we call it the cross multiplication method here
It is just the cross multiplication method of solving equation...taught in class 8-9-10th in India.....he just tell it in a simplified way.....but still great video
This was a great video really appreciate the technique! What about systems of equations that have no solution? Such as: -4x + 8y = 1 and 3x - 6y = 2 I tried using this rule for these equations but when plugging them back into the original equation they do not work. When using the elimination method the answer ends up being a contradiction with no solution. Would Kramer's rule still be relevant for these types of problems?
Simultaneous equation is used to find out the intersection points of two equations, if there are no solutions, that means the two lines does not intersect. In your example, the two equations both have a gradient of 1/2 and that means they are parallel and therefore does not intersect at any point, and hence there is no solution.
This is actually something we are taught along with elimination and substitution, generally referred to as cross multiplication. I never really used this though, because there's a lot of room for error, like you wrote the coefficient of x instead of y, etc. Still, a good method to know 😇
Comes from Matrices. I don't advocate teaching these tricks unless people know where it comes from. The reason is that math should not be about getting the answer quick, but rather proving what the answer is every step of the way. An answer is no use unless you can show others why it is true.
You solved for X in under 30 sec. Granted, the writing and demonstration took up the bulk of the time, not the thinking part of the math. I appreciate a clever math trick as much as the next mathematician, but I solved for X myself using standard substitution method and it seemed easier and took less time for me. Maybe this is due to me being used to doing it that way for over 40 years, but substitution has the additional benefit of understanding the values. The alleged time saver is fun but I believe kids should know why the values are what they are.
Make sure you only do this with LINEAR systems of equations.

Dx + (EC - EAx)/B = F
(DBx + EC - EAx)/B = F
DBx - EAx + EC = FB
(DB - EA)x + EC = FB
(DB - EA)x = FB - EC
x = (FB - EC)/(DB - EA)
x = (BF - EC)/(DB - AE)
And that’s exactly what’s done here

Infact it is even in the maths book and compulsory to learn < we call it the cross multiplication method here
Yes..anirudh...yeh..to humare liye normal hain!👍😎
what is there are variables on the right hand side as well?
It is just the cross multiplication method of solving equation...taught in class 8-9-10th in India.....he just tell it in a simplified way.....but still great video
yeah i was wondering that. i was taught this in year 9 apparently.
I was taught this is in year 6 and ;-;.
exactly, it is not a trick it is just a memorization of the general formula/method.
yeah this is good but thers marks for formula and steps soo....
Thank you King! Respect from Indonesia 👍
This had really help me
Glad to hear it!
I was thinking about how similar this is to matrices and determinants when you were solving it. Guess I was right
This was a great video really appreciate the technique! What about systems of equations that have no solution?
Such as:
-4x + 8y = 1
and
3x - 6y = 2
I tried using this rule for these equations but when plugging them back into the original equation they do not work.
When using the elimination method the answer ends up being a contradiction with no solution. Would Kramer's rule still be relevant for these types of problems?
There is no solutions for this system so the formula won't work
@@gregorydaude4781 Ah ok good to know thank you.
Simultaneous equation is used to find out the intersection points of two equations, if there are no solutions, that means the two lines does not intersect. In your example, the two equations both have a gradient of 1/2 and that means they are parallel and therefore does not intersect at any point, and hence there is no solution.
Thank you wery mach !!!!! This wideo really saved my time !
This is actually something we are taught along with elimination and substitution, generally referred to as cross multiplication. I never really used this though, because there's a lot of room for error, like you wrote the coefficient of x instead of y, etc. Still, a good method to know 😇
He said it's a secret algebra trick but now thousands of people know it
WTH! What did I just see! Algebra made easy....NO WAY!!!!
Very glad you thought so. Have a great day!
Awesome tricks. Thanks so much. I enjoy this video.
This trick is awesome!
Thanks very much!
Comes from Matrices.
I don't advocate teaching these tricks unless people know where it comes from.
The reason is that math should not be about getting the answer quick, but rather proving what the answer is every step of the way.
An answer is no use unless you can show others why it is true.
holy freak this actually saved me so much time, thank you
You solved for X in under 30 sec. Granted, the writing and demonstration took up the bulk of the time, not the thinking part of the math. I appreciate a clever math trick as much as the next mathematician, but I solved for X myself using standard substitution method and it seemed easier and took less time for me. Maybe this is due to me being used to doing it that way for over 40 years, but substitution has the additional benefit of understanding the values. The alleged time saver is fun but I believe kids should know why the values are what they are.
👌👌.for quadratic equations???
When you realize you will get 1/4 marks for this instead of 4 or 3 points
So just use it as a quick way to check your answer
That is some quick maths, that big shack would be proud of
Flawless
Glad you liked it!
Wow...awesome...really helped me..thanks!
Wow!!!
I know right?!
In India, we call it cross multiplication method, XD we're learning this from decades XD.
