Question

Solve the system using multiplication for the linear combination method. 6x – 3y = 3 –2x + 6y = 14 What is the solution to the system? (2, 1) (2, –3) (2, –1) (2, 3)

Answer 1

Answer:

2,3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

6x-3y=3
-2x+6y=14.
First step is multiply the top equation by 2, so you have
12x-6y=6
-2x+6y=14
-6y and +6y cancel each other out, so if you simplify, you have
10x=20, which is then solved by dividing each side by 10, and getting x=2.

Now plug x=2 into one of the equations (I chose the first)
6(2)-3y=3
12-3y=3
-3y=-9, divide each side by -3 and get y=3. 
so your point is (2,3)
