3a + 6b = 45
2a - 2b = -12....multiply by 3
----------------
3a + 6b = 45
6a - 6b = - 36 ...(result of multiplying by 3)
---------------add
9a = 9
a = 1
3a + 6b = 45
3(1) + 6b = 45
3 + 6b = 45
6b = 45 - 3
6b = 42
b = 7
solution is : (1,7)
Answer:
B. 1 and -2
Explanation:
First, add up the equations:
x-x+3y+y=4
4y=4
y=1
Now, plug y into any of the original equations above and solve for x:
-x+1=3
-x=2
x=-2
Therefore, the answer is B. 1 and -2
