I have this code for building an equation system in Latex. I would like to align equation to the left.



begin{equation}
$$$left{ begin{array}{cc}
begin{aligned}
(x_{i},Pa_{j(X_{i})}),\
j=1 \
r(X_{i},Pa_{j}(X_{i}|Pa{1}(X_{i}),...,Pa{j-1}(X_{i}))),\
j=2,...,m
end{aligned}
end{array}
right .$$$
end{equation}

          You can include an & at the start of each line within the aligned environment, this will align each line with the left edge.



          documentclass{article} 
          usepackage{amsmath}
          begin{document}

          begin{equation}
          $$$left{ begin{array}{cc}
          begin{aligned}
          &(x_{i},Pa_{j(X_{i})}),\
          &j=1 \
          &r(X_{i},Pa_{j}(X_{i}|Pa{1}(X_{i}),...,Pa{j-1}(X_{i}))),\
          &j=2,...,m
          end{aligned}
          end{array}

          You can use cases for this, since it aligns the first column on the left:



          enter image description here



          documentclass{article}

          usepackage{amsmath}

          DeclareMathOperator{Pa}{Pa}

          begin{document}

          begin{equation}
          begin{cases}
          (x_i, Pa_j(X_i)), \
          j = 1 \
          r(X_i, Pa_j(X_i mid Pa_1(X_i), dots, Pa_{j - 1}(X_i))), \
          j = 2, dots, m
          end{cases}
          end{equation}

          end{document}


          However, based on your layout, you might be interested in



          enter image description here



          documentclass{article}

          usepackage{amsmath}

          begin{document}

          begin{equation}
          begin{cases}
          r(x_i, Pa_j(X_i)), & j = 1, \
          r(X_i, Pa_j(X_i mid Pa_1(X_i), dots, Pa_{j - 1}(X_i))), & j = 2, dots, m
          end{cases}
          end{equation}

                You can use cases for this, since it aligns the first column on the left:



                enter image description here



                documentclass{article}

                usepackage{amsmath}

                DeclareMathOperator{Pa}{Pa}

                begin{document}

                begin{equation}
                begin{cases}
                (x_i, Pa_j(X_i)), \
                j = 1 \
                r(X_i, Pa_j(X_i mid Pa_1(X_i), dots, Pa_{j - 1}(X_i))), \
                j = 2, dots, m
                end{cases}
                end{equation}

                end{document}
