Answer: (4,2). Explanation: In the elimination method you either add or subtract the equations to get an equation in one variable. When the coefficients of one variable are opposites you add the equations to eliminate a variable and when the coefficients of one variable are equal you subtract the equations to eliminate a variable. The Elimination Method
Step 1: Multiply each equation by a suitable number so that the two equations have the same leading coefficient. ...
Step 2: Subtract the second equation from the first.
Step 3: Solve this new equation for y.
Step 4: Substitute y = 2 into either Equation 1 or Equation 2 above and solve for x.
variable equation. It is relatively difficult to determine the values of x and y without manipulating the equations. If one adds the two equations together, the x s cancel out; the x is eliminated from the problem. Hence it is called the "elimination method”.
