REORDER QUESTION

1 min • 5 pts

Put the steps for solving by ELIMINATION in order:

Solve for the remaining variable

Multiply one or both equations by a number to get common but opposite coefficients

Subtract the equations to eliminate one variable

Plug that number into either original equation and solve for the other variable

Make sure the equations are lined up

In this system x+3y=9 it'll be easiest to start by solving the first equation for x. The result of doing so is x=​9-3y. Fill in the blanks to plug that expression in and solve for y: 4(​9-3y)-2​y =-6 36-​12y-2y=​-6 36-​14y =-6 -14y=​ (a)   y=​ (b)

Consider the system

4x+3y=-1

5x+4y=1

Let's say I want to eliminate the y's. What is the least common multiple of 3 and 4?

LCM = ​ (a)  

Multiply each equation by a number so that the coefficient of y will be 12, with one positive and one negative.

​ (b)   (4x+3y=-1)

​ (c)   (5x+4y=1)

Consider the system

4x+3y=-1

5x+4y=1

After we do this multiplication, what will the new equations be?

​ 4(4x+3y=-1) ---> ​ (a)   x +​ (b)   y=​ (c)  

​-3(5x+4y=1)​ ---> ​ (d)   x -​ (e)   y= -3
