The system of equations are .
Observe the coefficient of each term, the coefficient of x - term has opposite coefficients, so the best method is Elimination using addition method to solve the system of equations.
\Elimination using addition:
\ ----------(1)
----------(2)
Add the equations to eliminate the x - variable and solve the equation.
\The resultant equation is .
Divide each side by negative 10.
\The value of substitute in either equation to find x.
Second equation: .
Add 6 to each side.
\Divide each side by negative 3.
\The solution is .
