Question

Part 1: Explain, in complete sentences, how you would use the elimination method to solve the following system of equations. (4 points) Part 2: Provide the solution to the system. (2 points)

5x – 3y = 4
3x – 5y = –4

Answer 1

Not sure what you meant by the elimination method.
I would just add them together to obtain 8x-8y=0, hence x = y. Sub in x for y or vice versa for 5x - 3y = 4 or 3x - 5y = -4. x = y = 2

Answer 2

What are the solutions?

Answer 3

??????????

Answer 4

x=2
y=2

Answer 5

Okay, good I got it right.
