Question

Solve the system by the elimination method.

-2x + y + 6 = 0

2x + y - 8 = 0

When you eliminate x, what is the resulting equation?

Answer 1

Ok elimination is kinda like getting rid of one variable. So lets get rid of the x. All we gotta do is add the 2 equations
\(-2x+y=-6\)
\(2x+y=8\)
ok so lets subtract:
\( -2x+y=-6\)
\( 2x+y=8\)
--------------
\( 0x+ 2y=2\)
So the resulting equation is 2y=2

Answer 3

hmmmm can u post ur question here it will be easier to solve
