OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

do u have to do both? or pick one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you there @Godlovesme

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

yes sorry which one do u prefer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I want to get elimination down pact...so lets do elimination again

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

alright the reason why we have to multiply the 1st equation by 7 is to make the 2s 114s and we can cancel out with the -ve 14s from the 2nd equation but we only multiply the 1st one so far so good?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I got (7) 2s +3t=120 14s + 21t = -840 The 14s will cancel out on the next line...what will I do with the 21 and 91? @Godlovesme

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not trying to over do it but are you still there @Godlovesme

OpenStudy (godlovesme):

yes sorry again....
