SOLUTION: I hope this is posted in the correct place. I need some help I do not understand how to do this. Thanks for any help you can give. solve by elimination process and type an ordered

Eq. 1:
Eq. 2:

Start by putting the equations into standard form:

Eq. 1:
Eq. 2:

Let's start by eliminating the y variable. We need a constant to multiply the first equation and another constant to multiply the second equation so that the coefficients on the y variables become additive inverses. 7 * -9 = -63 and 9 * 7 = 63. That should work.

Eq. 3:
Eq. 4:

Now add the x terms together, the y terms together, and the constants together to create another equation that has a zero coefficient on y.

Eq. 5:



Go back to the original set of equations:
Eq. 1:
Eq. 2:

But this time, just multiply equation 2 by 2:
Eq. 6:
Eq. 7:

Add the equations to eliminate x
Eq. 8:


Your solution set is (2.5,-.5)
