Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. Choose the correct ordered
6x + 4y = 32
–6x + 4y = 8

Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations Choose the correct ordered 6x 4y 326x 4y 8 class=

Respuesta :

ok so set your two equations on top of each other 

6x + 4y = 32 
-6x + 4y = 8 
------------------------------- 



notice that 6x and the -6x will be 0 so they get eliminated 

so what do we have left after getting ride of those 


4y = 32 
4y = 8 
----------------------- 

so now lets keep adding down 

8y = 40 

now solve for y but dividing so y = 5 

now that you know what your (y) value is y = 5 take 5 and plug it back into one of the original equations to get your x value. I chose the following 


6x + 4y = 32 
6x + 4(5) = 32 
6x + 20 = 32 
6x = 12 
x = 2 


so your point is ( 2 , 5 ) 

hope this helps
