The system of equations are:

2x − 4y = 6
−3x + 3y = 9

To eliminate x, you should:
1. multiply first equation with 3
2. multiply second equation with 2
3. add the new equations you got

So your answer is A.

Answer:

A)  add 2 times the second equation to 3 times the first equation

Step-by-step explanation:

add 2 times the second equation to 3 times the first equation

3(2x − 4y = 6)

2(−3x + 3y = 12)

6x − 12y = 18

−6x + 6y = 24

Adding the second equation to the first equation gives:

−6y = 42

y =  

42

−6

y = −7

Find the volume of the bag and candle.Round to the nearest tenth
user100 [1]
The volume of the bag will be found by multiplying the length times the width times the height. This would be 5.5 x 3 x 8. The volume of the bag is 20.9 cubic inches. The volume of the candle would be found by using the formula for finding volume of a cylinder. V =pi(approximately 3.14) x r^2 x h, where r is the radius( half the diameter) and h is the height. V = 3.14 x 1.25 x 1.25 x 6. The volume of the cylinder would be 29.4 cubic inches.
