In the elimination method, what operation is used to eliminate one of the variables?

• Multiplication

• Addition or subtraction

• Division

• Exponentiation

When is the substitution method most useful in solving a system of equations?

• When both equations are already solved

• When the equations are not related

• When the variables are not known

• When one of the equations can be easily solved for one variable

What are the steps involved in solving a system of equations using the elimination method?
