Question

A student is trying to solve the system of two equations given below: equation p: y z = 6 equation q: 5y 9z = 1 which of these is a possible step used in eliminating the y-term? (y z = 6) ⋅ 9 (y z = 6) ⋅ −5 (5y 9z = 1) ⋅ 9 (5y 9z = 1) ⋅ 5

Answer 1

System of equation consists of two or more equations with unknow variables. A possible step used in eliminating the y-term is (y + z  6) *5

System of equations

System of equation consists of two or more equatons with unknow variables.

Given the system of equations

y + z = 6

5y + 9z =1

In order to eliminate the variable "y", we will multiply equation 1 by 5 and subtract from equation 2;

5y + 5z = 30

5y + 9z = 1

Subtract

5z - 9z = 30 - 1

-4z =29

This leaves only the variable "z" eliminating variable. "y"
