\

The system of equations are \"\".

\

Neither variable has a common coefficient.The coefficient  of the y - variables are 0.1 and 1 and their least common multiple is 0.1, so multiply each equation by the value  that will make the y - coefficient 0.1.

\

To get two equations that contain opposite terms multiply the second equation by negative 0.1.

\

Write the equations in column form and add the corresponding columns to eliminate y - variable.
