<PRE><B>Question 999071</B>
i need help with this problem please:
4x+4y=8
2x+y=2
another elimation/addition systems of equations problem.
i just dont know what to multiply to the first equation to make the variables. im having issues with that.
-------------------
You can multiply the 2nd eqn by 2, then eliminate x.  Or by 4 and eliminate y.
--------------
I would divide the 1st eqn by 4.  I prefer smaller coefficients generally.

Divide the 1st eqn by 4, then subtract.
