4a/3-b/4=6<br> 5a/6+b=13<br> Solve linear system by elimination

$\bf \cfrac{4a}{3}-\cfrac{b}{4}=6
\qquad \qquad 
\cfrac{5a}{6}+b=13
\\\\\\
\textit{let us remove the denominators off those folks}\\
\textit{by multiplying the first one by 12, both sides}\\
\textit{and the second one by 6, both sides, thus}
\\\\\\
12\left( \cfrac{4a}{3}-\cfrac{b}{4} \right)=12(6)\implies 16a-4b=72
\\\\\\
6\left( \cfrac{5a}{6}+b \right)=6(13)\implies 5a+6b=78$

$\bf \textit{now, let's do the elimination}
\\\\

\begin{array}{llll}
16a-4b=72&\boxed{\times 3}\implies &48a-\underline{12b}=216\\\\
5a+6b=78&\boxed{\times 2}\implies &10a+\underline{12b}=156\\
&&--------\\
&&58a+0\quad=372
\end{array}$

solve for "a", once you get "a", plug it back into either equation to get "b"

3x - 7x =4<br> I need you to help me solve and work it out

djyliett [7]

3-7 is -4 so it becomes -4x=4 divide both sides by 4 to get -x=-1 a lot of teachers dont like that negative x so you can also divide by -1 again to make it x=1
hope it helps
