Question

Solve by the elimination method.

x + y = -2,
4x - 6y = -3

Answer 1

multiply the first equation by -4 so you can eliminate x

Answer 2

Okay in order to use this method we need to multiply the top equation by -4
-4(x+y=-2)
-4x-4y=8
4x-6y=-3
now eliminate x
-10y=5

Answer 3

now you can solve for the y coordinate, and plug that back in to find the x coordinate

Answer 4

y variable :)

Answer 5

y-variable * thank you @nincompoop

Answer 6

sorry i took long thank you guys :)
