You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Your given system is ready for using the Elimination Method, but you want \"addition-subtraction\" method. This name of method is not well known everywhere, so I will show you how to begin the solution process of the Elimination Method.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Both of your equations are in standard form and both have a term, 5y in their left members. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2x%2B5y-%283x%2B5y%29=15-10\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2x%2B5y-3x-5y=5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2x-3x%2B5y-5y=5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-x%2B0=5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-x=5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28x=-5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "I prefer to continue using substitution.
\n" ); document.write( "Start with either original equation, arbitrarily choosing----3x+5y=10
\n" ); document.write( "\"5y=10-3x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=10%2F5-3x%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=2-3x%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=2-3%2A%28-5%29%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28y=5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
