Question 394553: Use elimination to solve this.
5x - 2y = -10
3x + 6y = 66
Answer by pie90010(44) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5x - 2y = -10
3x + 6y = 66
multiply the first equation by 3 so you can cancel the y's
15x - 6y = -30
3x + 6y = 66
now add them up
18x = 36
x = 2
now you can plug it into the original equation to find y
3(2) + 6y = 66
6 + 6y = 66
6y = 60
y = 10
the solution set would be
