How would I explain to solve this using the elimination method? 5x – 3y = 4 3x – 5y = –4

i think u multiply -3 by top eqn and 5 by bottom to give -15x+9y=-12 and 15x-25y=-20 then add top eqn to bottom eqn =leaving -16y=-32....the x canceled out 15+-15=0 then divide thru by -16 which will leave y=2
