Elimination Method:

\

The system of equations are

\

\"\"       Equation (1)

\

\"\" Equation (2)

\

Neither variable has a common coefficient.The coefficient  of the x - variables are 3 and 12 and their least common multipe is 12, so multiply equation(1) by 4 that will make the x - coefficient 12.

\

\"\"

\

Add the equations to elimante x - variable.

\

Write the equations in column form and add the corresponding columns.

\

\"\"

\

Because the 0 = 192 is not true, this system has no solutions.

\

\"\"

\

The system has no solutions.
