Solve the following equation simultaneously 2a-3b+10=0, 10a+6b=8

tia_tia [17]

$2a -3b +10 =0\\\\10a+ 6b -8 =0\\\\\text{Using cross multiplication method}\\\\\\ \dfrac a{(-3)(-8) - 6(10)} = \dfrac b{10(10) - 2(-8)} = \dfrac 1{ 2(6) - (-3)(10)}\\\\\\\implies \dfrac a{24-60} = \dfrac b{100+16} = \dfrac 1{12+30}\\\\\\\\\implies -\dfrac {a}{36} = \dfrac b{116} = \dfrac 1{42}\\\\\\\text{Hence}\\\\a = - \dfrac{36}{42} = -\dfrac 67 \\\\\\ b= \dfrac{116}{42} = \dfrac{58}{21}$

Steps to solve a two step equation

Kobotan [32]

I'm not entirely sure about some of these because there could be multiple answers, i think. i'll just leave the ones i can't help you with blank.

1) Begin to (isolate) the (variable) by eliminating the (constant). To eliminate the constant, you want to make it (cancel?) because ___+___=___)
2) (Balance) your equation by doing the exact same thing in the opisite side of the (equal sign).
3) Finish (isolating) the (variable) by eliminating the (coefficient). To eliminate the coefficient, you want to make it (cancel?) because ___x___=___,
4) (Balance) your equation by doing the exact same thing on the opposite side of the (equal sign).
5) Check your answer by (plugging) it in or the _____.

honestly, i find it really amusing that they found a way to break a TWO-step equation into 5 steps ?? but i hope this helps a little!!
