Question

Solve the system of equations using the elimination method.

x + 4y = 0

x = -5 + y

Answer 1

Minus the y on the 2nd eqution to get
x+4y=0
x-y=-5

Answer 2

On the 2nd equation multiple a - so it will be
x+4y=0
-x+y=5

Answer 3

Then you will get 5y=5
Divide the 5 on both sides to be y=1
Then plug in the 1 on one of the equtions to get
x=-4 & y=1

Answer 4

Sorry, y=-1
