Simply collect like terms, numbers and or variables that have the same number and type of variable.
For example 15x^2 and 10x^2 are like terms. Circle the sign in front of the term to perform the correct operation.
It costs 2.50 for 1 taco and 4 dollars for 1 burrito
3x + 4y = 31
2x - 4y = -6
*The +4 and -4 in the center of the equation cancel out because 4-4 = 0*
3x = 31
2x = -6
------------
*add like terms*
3x + 2x = 5x
31 - 6 = 25
So now you should have this written on your paper ... > 5x = 25
*Divide by 5 on each side*
5x = 25

5 5
x = 5
