The video tutorial explains the elimination method for solving systems of equations. It covers various scenarios, including when equations have a single solution, no solution, or infinite solutions. The tutorial uses examples to demonstrate how to manipulate equations to eliminate variables and solve for unknowns. It also discusses the implications of parallel lines and overlapping lines in the context of solutions.

What is the goal when adding two equations together in a system of linear equations?

• To eliminate one of the variables

• To make the equations more complex

• To increase the number of variables

• To find the product of the variables
