Algebra.Com's Answer #474713 by sofiyac(983)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 3x+2y=10 multiply this one by -2 \n" ); document.write( "2x+5y=3 multiply this one by 3, then add the two new equations \n" ); document.write( "- \n" ); document.write( "-6x-4y=-20 \n" ); document.write( "6x+15y=9 now add them \n" ); document.write( "----------- \n" ); document.write( "11y=-11 divide each side by 11 \n" ); document.write( "y=-1 next plug that into either of the original equations and solve for x, i'm going to work with the first one \n" ); document.write( "3x+2(-1)=10 \n" ); document.write( "3x-2=10 add 2 to each side \n" ); document.write( "3x=12 divide each side by 3 \n" ); document.write( "x=4 \n" ); document.write( "(4,-1) \n" ); document.write( " |
