Question 85367: Solve each of the following by subtraction.
5x – 2y = -5 y – 5x = 3
8x – 4y = 16 y = 2x – 4
4x – 12y = 5 -x + 3y = -1
10x + 2y = 7 y = -5x + 3

5X-2Y=-5
-5X+Y=3
-------------
-Y=-2
Y=2 ANSWER.
--------------------------------------
8X-4Y=16 NOW MULTIPLY THE SECOND EQUATION BY 4 & ADD.
-8X+4Y=-16
--------------
0X+0Y=0 NO SOLUTION AS THESE ARE THE SAME EQUATION WITH 2 UNKNOWNS.
