Question

Solve using the elimination method. If the system has no solution or an infinite number of solutions, state this.
-2x + 6y = -12,
x + 3y = -3

Answer 1

-2x+6y=-12
- 2x+6y=-6
becomes -4x = -6
x =6/4
y = -9/6
Do you see how I did this? Wait that's what you meant by elimination right?

Answer 2

Thanks! I'll have to work on this some more to get a better understanding.
