What is the first step Terri could take to find the solution to the system of equations using the Elimination Method?

• Multiply by -1 through one equation to flip the signs and create opposite y-values.

• Multiply by -1 through one equation to flip the signs and create opposite x-values.

• Multiply by 1 through one equation to flip the signs and create opposite y-values.

• Isolate a variable and substitute the value in the other equation.

A customer at a store paid $64 for 3 large candles and 4 small candles. At the same store, a second customer paid $68 for 1 large candle and 8 small candles. The price of each large candle is the same, and the price of each small candle is the same. Which system of equations can be used to find the price in dollars of each large candle, x, and each small candle, y?

• 4y = 3x + 64

  8y = x + 68

• 4y = 3x + 64

  8y = x + 60

• 3x + 4y = 64

  x + 8y = 68

• 3x + 4y = 64

  x + 8y = 60

A customer at a store paid $64 for 3 large candles and 4 small candles. At the same store, a second customer paid $4 more than the first customer for 1 large candle and 8 small candles. The price of each large candle is the same, and the price of each small candle is the same. Which system of equations can be used to find the price in dollars of each large candle, x, and each small candle, y?

• 4y = 3x + 64

  8y = x + 68

• 4y = 3x + 64

  8y = x + 60

• 3x + 4y = 64

  x + 8y = 68

• 3x + 4y = 64

  x + 8y = 60

Alexandra finds that she can give 3 haircuts and 2 hair dyes in 315 minutes. Giving 2 haircuts and 4 hair dyes takes 450 minutes.  Which system of equations represents the situation?

• 3x + 2y = 315
  2x + 4y = 450

• 3x + 2y = 450
  2x + 4y = 315

• 2x + 2y = 315
  3x + 4y = 450

AJ was asked to find the solution to this system of equations. x = 7 - 2y 2x + y = 5 Noticing that x was isolated and set equal to 7 - 2y, he decided to replace x in the second equation with its value. What method is AJ using and what equation did he write?

• Elimination; 2(7-2y) + y = 5

• Graphing; 2x = (7-2y) + y = 5

• Substitution; 2(7-2y) + y = 5

• Substitution; x = 7 - 2y + 2x + y = 5
