You want to get rid of the y by elimination in the system below: x-6y=35; \n" ); document.write( "10x-2y=35. If you multiply the top equation by 4, by which number will you multiply the bottom equation? \n" ); document.write( "----------- \n" ); document.write( "x-6y = 35 times 4 ----> 4x-24y = 140 \n" ); document.write( "10x-2y = 35 times ? --> Ax-24y = 35B \n" ); document.write( "================ \n" ); document.write( "I would multiply the 2nd eqn by 3, and use the 1st eqn as is. \n" ); document.write( " |
