![]() Solving Systems of Equation Using ELIMINATION ![]() Solving Systems of Equations Using SUBSTITUTION First, make sure that one set of variables has opposite coefficients. Fill in all the blanks, then press "ok" { (-4) + 5y = 1 -2x - 5y = 11 -x + 5y = 1 y = answer + -2x - 5y = 11 -x + 5y = 1 ( , ) x = = 12 Solve { -2x + 2y = 8 4x - 2y = 6 Answer ( , ) Sometimes, you will have to multiply one of the equations by a number to get one set of "opposite variables." { What should you multiply the second equationby to make the x variable "opposite variables?" 3x - 4y = -1 x - 6y = -5 -6 3 -3 -4 Solve this system. { 3x - 4y = -1 x - 6y = -5 ( , ) { Solve. 3x - y = 11 5x + 3y = 9 ( , ) ![]() Solve. ( , ) ![]() Solve. ( , ) + Solve for y. -6x + 21y = -24 6x - 4y = 24 the x-coordinate is the y-coordinate is Then solve for x. Is (5, -2) a solution of { 3x + 4y = 7 x - 2y = 9 Yes No ? ![]() Is (-1, 4) a solution of this system? Yes No ![]() Solve. ( , ) |
