SOLUTION: Solve the system using addition/elimination method. If there is exactly one solution, write as an ordered pair. If not, choose one of the other options. {(4x,-,4y,=,16),(2x,+,4y

Question 1205763: Solve the system using addition/elimination method. If there is exactly one solution, write as an ordered pair. If not, choose one of the other options.
{(4x,-,4y,=,16),(2x,+,4y,=,14):}
A. One solution:
B. No solution
C. Infinite number of solutions

{(4x,-,4y,=,16),(2x,+,4y,=,14):}

Why the commas??



Add the equations term by term and the -4y and the +4y 
will cancel out. Then you can solve for x, then substitute 
that number for x into either of the other equations, then
you can solve for y.
