Question

use the elimination method to solve the given system of equations.write your answer as an ordered pair (x,y).

-2x+y=2
3x+2y=-3

Answer 1

multiply first equation by -2 add it to second
\[4x-2y=-4\]
\[3x+2y=-3\]
\[7x=-7\]

Answer 2

you should then get
\[x=-1\] and replace \(x\) by \(-1\) in either equation to get \(y\)

Answer 3

in fact i believe you get \(y=0\) so solution is \((-1,0)\) or \(x=-1,y=0\)
