Question 138803: Please I hope some one can help me, I am not doing to well in my algebra class.I have three questions I am having trouble with.I want to thank you for all your help in advance.
1. Solve the system of equations using the substitution method.
If the answer is a unique solution, present it as an ordered pair: (x, y). If not, specify whether the answer is �no solution� or �infinitely many solutions.�
-3x + y = 1
5x + 2y = -4
2. Solve the system of equations using the addition (elimination) method.
If the answer is a unique solution, present it as an ordered pair: (x, y). If not, specify whether the answer is �no solution� or �infinitely many solutions.�
-7x + y = 8
2x � y = 2
3. Solve the system of equations using the addition (elimination) method.
If the answer is a unique solution, present it as an ordered pair: (x, y). If not, specify whether the answer is �no solution� or �infinitely many solutions.�
3x � 2y = -7
-9x + 6y = 21
