The video tutorial explains how to solve systems of equations using the elimination method. It covers identifying and creating opposite variables, using multiplication to adjust equations, and handling special cases like no solution or infinite solutions. The tutorial provides step-by-step examples to illustrate each concept.

What is the primary goal when using the elimination method to solve systems of equations?

• To find the sum of all variables

• To eliminate one variable by adding opposites

• To multiply all terms by zero

• To divide all terms by the same number

In the context of elimination, what does it mean to have opposite variables?

• Variables that are the same in both magnitude and sign

• Variables that are different in both magnitude and sign

• Variables that are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign

• Variables that are equal in magnitude and sign
