SOLUTION: Solve the system of equations by elimination: x^2+y^2=64 (x^2)/64 - (y^2)/1 = 1 I'm having trouble converting the second equation to match the first part.

Question 880275: Solve the system of equations by elimination:
x^2+y^2=64
(x^2)/64 - (y^2)/1 = 1
I'm having trouble converting the second equation to match the first part.

You can add the two equations to eliminate y^2, because although the second equation has denominator of 1, the coefficient is negative 1.

You can also use the elimination method to eliminate x^2 terms if you multiply the first equation by and then subtract the two equations again, to solve for y.
