Would any of you guys know how to do this?

Arieonna:

for the first question it would be \[x=-5y/6-1\]

Arieonna:

for the next problem it is \[x=2(y+8)\]

To solve the linear system using the elimination method, we need to eliminate one of the variables by adding or subtracting the equations. In this case, we can eliminate x by multiplying the second equation by 6 and adding the two equations together: 6x + 5y = -6 -6x + 12y = -96


17y = -102 Now we can solve for y by dividing both sides by 17: y = -6 Substitute y = -6 back into either of the original equations and solve for x: -x + 2y = -16 -x + 2(-6) = -16 -x - 12 = -16 -x = -4 x = 4 Therefore, the solution to the linear system is (x, y) = (4, -6).
