You can put this solution on YOUR website! I need to solve using the addition method
3x – 2.5y = 7.1250
2.5x – 3y = 7.3125
--------------------
Multiply each equation by 10 to get rid of coefficient decimals.
---
30x - 25y = 71.250
25x - 30y = 73.125
-----
Multiply thru 1st by 5
Multiply thru 2nd by 6
------------------
150x - 125y = 356.25
150x - 180y = 438.75
---
Subtract 2nd from 1st and solve for "y"
55y = -82.5
y = -1.5
-----
Substitute that value into one of the equations and solve for "x":
