Answer:
Look at the picture
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is B. -9
I would say a but not 100% sure.
The first method is substitution. This is when the x or y value that is known is substituted into one of the equations. This should be done when you can easily see or find the x or y value.
Example: x = 3, and x + 8y = 30.
The x was given in the first equation (x = 3), and can therefore be substituted into the other equation to find y.
The next method is elimination. This is when you add the two systems together and eliminate either the x values or the y values. This should be done when there are opposite signs of the same number in both equations.
Example: y - 3x = 24, and 2y + 3x = 7
In the first equation you have -3x, and in the second you have 3x. If you were to add the two equations, the x values would cancel out and you would be left with:
y + 2y = 24 + 7
And then you could solve for y.
The last method is to graph both equations and to see at which point the lines intersect.
