HELP I NEED QUICK ANSWERS 1. Select the best possible first step to solving the system by first eliminating the y variable. 5x - y = 5 7x - 3y = -1 A. Multiply the first equation by -3. B. Multiply the second equation by -3. C. Multiply the first equation by 3. D. Multiply the second equation by 3. 2. Select the best possible first step to solving the system by first eliminating the x variable. 3x - 9y = 6 2x - 11y = 6

2. answers A. Multiply the first equation by -2 and multiply the second equation by 3. B. Multiply the first equation by -2 and multiply the second equation by -3. C. Multiply the first equation by 2 and multiply the second equation by 3. D. None of the above

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

okay first of all, quick answers aren't a policy of open study and secondly before you go on DEMANDING answers, you actually have to share us your approach so we can help you much better

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

according to you what should be the most probable answer in the first one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay first of all, i didn't DEMAND answers just asked for help do you wanna help me or not

OpenStudy (mrnood):

to eliminate y you need ot get the same number in front of y in each equation. Which step will achieve this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just need a quick answer man.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can learn the details later

OpenStudy (mrnood):

now you are DEMANDING an answer This is not the place for oyu - it is a place where people who want to learn can come for help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you too? do you wanna help me or not. cuz if not there is nothing stopping you from leaving.

OpenStudy (mrnood):

yes - I do want to help you to learn

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

Since we're not dying to help you until and unless you cooperate with us you aren't going to get help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

normally i would need learning help but now i am really streched for time

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

To solve a pair of simultaneous equation, you follow a method known as elimination method. Where you multiply an equation with a number just to add both equation and to get rid of a variable. In the first pair how can you get rid of x or y

OpenStudy (mrnood):

In the time you have spent her you could have attempted to use the help I gave above:: To eliminate y you need ot get the same number in front of y in each equation. Which step will achieve this?
