Can you help me solve systems of equations by elimination step by step 6x+y=15 -7x-2y=-10

Mathematics

Answer:   (4, -9)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Use elimination method.  Manipulate one (or both) equations to eliminate one of the variables and solve for the remaining variable.  <em>I will be eliminating y</em>

6x +  y =  15    → 2(6x +  y =  15)   →   12x + 2y = 30

-7x - 2y = -10   → 1(-7x + 2y = -10)   →  <u> -7x - 2y = -10</u>

                                                             5x        = 20

                                                               x         =  4

Next, replace "x" with "4" into either equation and solve for y.

6(4) + y = 15

24  + y = 15

         y  = -9


<u>Check:</u>

Plug in x = 4 and y = -9 into the other equation to verify it makes a true statement.

-7x - 2y = -10

-7(4) - 2(-9) = -10

-28  -   -18  = -10

-28  +  18 = -10

       -10    =  -10  \checkmark
