Question 123709This question is from textbook McDougal Littell Algebra 1
: I am supposed to solve the following linear system using linear combinations. Please help me to solve this problem. I have done the following work to the problem so far:
5e + 4f = 9 *The two equations on the left are the original linear system.
4e + 5f = 9
20e + 16f = 36
+ (-20e)- 25f = -36
________________
-9f= 0
f=0
5e+4*0= 9
5e+0= 9
e=1.8
However, when I substituted these two solutions to the variables e and f, the second equation-----> 4e + 5f = 9----- was not true. Please help me to achieve the correct answer.
Much appreciated, Megan B. This question is from textbook McDougal Littell Algebra 1
