Elimination Method:
\The equations are
\ Equation (1)
Equation (2)
Since the coefficients of b-terms are additive inverses, these terms can be
\elimanted by adding equations.
\Write the equations in column form and add the corresponding columns.
\Now, find the b value by substituting in
.
\ \
(Multiply:
