Answer:

we will have to multiply the second equation by 3 to eliminate the y variable by adding.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equations

4x – 3y = 6              →   (1)

6x + 2y = 10             →   (2)

As the first equation is multiplied by 2,

2(4x – 3y) = (2)6

8x - 6y = 12               →  (3)

As we have to eliminate y,

so multiply the second equation by 3,

6x + 2y = 10

3(6x + 2y) = 3(10)

18x + 6y = 30              →  (4)

So now adding the new equations (3) and (4) will eliminate the y variable by adding

8x - 6y = 12

18x + 6y = 30

--------------------

26x + 0y = 42

26x = 42

x = 42/26

x = 21/13

Therefore, we will have to multiply the second equation by 3 to eliminate the y variable by adding.
