Solve using the elimination method. Show your work. If the system has no solution or an infinite number of solutions, state this.
-3x + 6y = -3
-6x + 4y = -10

Answer by stanbon(75887)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
-3x + 6y = -3
-6x + 4y = -10
---------------------
Multiply thru the 1st Equation by 2 to get:
-6x + 12y = -6
-6x + 4y = -10
------
Subtract and solve for "y":
8y = 4
y = 1/2
-----
Solve for "x":
-3x + 6y = -3
-3x + 6(1/2) = -3
-3x + 3 = -3
-3x = -6
x = 2
-------------
