Solve the following system by elimination 2x-y=9 and 3x+4y=-14

2x - y = 9

3x + 4y = -14

To solve this system using elimination, one of the pairs of variable terms must cancel each other out. Their coefficients must be opposites of each other.

Multiply the top equation by 4.

2x - y = 9

4(2x - y = 9)

8x - 4y = 36

Add the equations together.

8x - 4y = 36

3x + 4y = -14

+___________

11x - 0 = 22

11x = 22

x = 2

Substitute 2 for x into either of the original equations to find y.

2x - y = 9

2(2) - y = 9

4 - y = 9

-y = 5

y = -5

Finally, check work by plugging x- and y-values into each original equation.

2(2) - (-5) = 9 --> 4 + 5 = 9 --> 9 = 9 --> True

3(2) + 4(-5) = -14 --> 6 - 20 = -14 --> -14 = -14 --> True

Answer:

x = 2 and y = -5; (2, -5).

BRAINLIEST ASAP! PLEASE HELP ME :)

<h3>Answer: C) none of the equations are identities</h3>

If you plugged theta = 0 into the first equation, then you would have

sin(45) + cos(45) = sin(0) + cos(0)

sqrt(2) = 1

which is a false equation. We don't have an identity here.

The same story happens with the second equation. Plug in theta = 0 and it becomes

cos(60) - sin(60) = cos^2(0) + tan(0)

1/2 - sqrt(3)/2 = 1 + 0

-0.37 = 1

which is false.
