Elimination, because you have -7 and 7, so you can just eliminate one of those equations.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
c. Elimination cuz u can eliminate -7 & 7

What is the solution to the system
7x+5y=19
-7x-2y=-16
a.(2,1)
b.(1,2)
c.(7,5)
d.(-7,-2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Wait let me work out then I'll tell u
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok

Its b.(1,2) cuz
7x+5y=19
-7x-2y=-16
-7x and 7x gets eliminated
Then +5y-2y=3y
19-16=3
So 3y=3
Y=3/3
Y=1
So subtitute y=1 in to 7x +5y=19
7x +5(1)=19
7x=19-5
7x=2
X=14/7
X=2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so b?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sorry 7x=14 (not 2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yeah
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Its b

which method would be most efficient to solve the system?
y=1/2x
2x+3y=28
a. graphing
b. substitution
c. elimination
d. distributive
