Question

5x+2y=29
2x-3y=23

Answer 1

to solve this sytem for x and y proceed as follows:
multiply the first equation by -3 and the second by 2 (dont forget to multiply each term)
then add the 2 new equation, - this will eliminate the terms in y
solve the resulting equation for x
finally plug in this value of x into one of the original equations and solve for y

Answer 2

thank you so much I appreciate it :)

Answer 4

but when I multiply the second equation by 2, the 6's still dont get canceled out. because -6-6=-12
