Question

A student is trying to solve the system of two equations given below:

Answer 1

Answer:

(y+z=6)*-3

Step-by-step explanation:

using this would make the top equation or (y+z=6) turn negative and would be this [-3y-3z=-18) using the distributive property. Since the bottom equation has a positive 3y. The -3y from the top equation and 3y from the bottom ones cancel out leaving you with z=-17 when combining like terms.

Answer 2

Answer:

c is the answer since you are trying to make the ys number (-/+) of the value the other y contains

(3) so you will multiply the first equation by -3 to be able to eliminate y
