That would be choice 3
middle term = -3mn-8mn = -11mn and last term = + 2n^2
First make sure that one of the variable has the same coefficient in each equations.
For example lets use:
y=x+3
2y=3x-1
Since neither the y's or x's are the same, we must multiply the equations to make them the same. I am going to multiply the first equation by 2 so I can eliminate the y's.
So we get:
2y=2x+3
2y=3x-1
Then we subtract the second equation from the first to eliminate the y's. So we end up with 0=-x+4 and now we solve for x
0=-x+4
x=4
Now we plug in our x into either original to get the y-value. I am using the first
y=x+3
y=4+3
So the x=4 and y=7
Hope this helps!
