Use elimination to solve each system of equations.
\n" ); document.write( "X=4Y+8
\n" ); document.write( "2X-8Y=-3
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Rearrange:
\n" ); document.write( "x - 4y = 8
\n" ); document.write( "2x-8y = -3
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply 1st by 2 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "2x - 8y = 16
\n" ); document.write( "2x - 8y = -3
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract to get:
\n" ); document.write( "0 = 19
\n" ); document.write( "==============
\n" ); document.write( "That is a contradiction resulting from assuming the x and the y in one
\n" ); document.write( "equation is the same as the x and the y in the other equation.
\n" ); document.write( "Conclusion: There is no solution; the lines are parallel.
\n" ); document.write( "===========================================================
