Hi,
Solving using the Substitution Method
2x+y=6 OR y = -2x+6
5x+4y=0
5x + 4(-2x+6) = 0
-3x = -24
x = 8 and y = -10
Ordered pair (8,-10) is the solution for this system of EQs
CHECKING our Answer***Using Elimination Method
2x+y=6
5x+4y=0
-8x-4y=-24 |Multiplying 1st EQ thru by -4, so as to eliminate y
5x +4y = 0
-3x = -24
x = 8 and y = -10 (y = -2x+6)
