\

Elimination Method:

\

The system of equations are

\

\"\"                                    (Equation 1)

\

\"\"                                  (Equation 2)

\

Since the coefficients of the y-terms are same and also differ in sign, you can eliminate these terms by adding the equations.Add the equations to eliminate variable y.

\

Write equations in column form and add the corresponding columns.

\

\"\"

\

The result value is \"\".\"\"

\

Now, find the y value by substitute \"\" in either equations.

\

\"\"                                  (Write equation 2)

\

\"\"                               (Substitute \"\")

\

\"\"                                          (Subtract 12 from each side)

\

\"\"                                               (Divide each side by 5)\"\"

\

To check the solution, the ordered pair \"\" substitute in original system as follows:

\

\"\"                             (Substitute into equation 1)

\

\"\"                                    (Equation 1 checks)

\

\"\"                           (Substitute into equation 2)

\

\"\"                                  (Equation 2 checks)\"\"

\

The solution is \"\".
