Answer: True</h3>
Explanation:
Technically you could isolate any variable you wanted, from either equation. However, convention is to pick the variable in which isolating it is easiest, and most efficient.
The key thing to look for is if there's a coefficient of 1. This is found in the second equation for the y term. Think of -4x+y = -13 as -4x+1y = -13. Due to the coefficient of 1, when solving for y we won't involve messy fractions.
If you were to solve for y, then you'd get y = 4x-13, which is then plugged in (aka substituted) into the first equation. That allows you to solve for x. Once you know x, you can determine y.
Y = kx where k is a constant
27 = k*9
k = 27/9 = 3
required variation is y = 3x
Answer: -2
Step-by-step explanation:
I think that using the elimination method is the best, because it is the only method that I use when solving these types of equation. For example, for these two equations, you need to multiply one of the equations by a certain number so that you'd be able to find x and y. The elimination method is the method that tells you to do that. It is also the easiest method.
