Question

please help me get started with using elimination method for 3x -2y =11 6x +11y = 97

Answer 1

I don't know how to solve for 'x' because the 'y' variables are confusing me

Answer 2

simple. first make the coefficients of y or x equal. Let's make y's coefficients equal.
to do this multiply the 1st equation by 11 nd the 2nd by 2. then add both equations. then u will b able to eliminate y.
