Question 701947: given the pair of linear equations (A) 2x+3y=2 (B) 3x+5y=3 select the correct step in the solution of the system using elimination also known as combination.
A) Multiply equation (A) by 3 and multiply equation (B) by 2 then add (A) and (B)
B) Multiply equation (A) by 3 and multiply equation (B) by -2 then add (A) and (B)
C) Subtract 3y from both sides of equation (A), then divide the equation by 2
D) Any of the above answers is correct.
E) None of the above is the correct procedure.
