Question

1. Solve the following system of equation using elimination, -6x + 5y = 1, 6x + 4y = -10 *

Answer 1

-1

Explanation:

1) -6x+5y= 1

6x+4y= -10 -6x and 6x cancel out

--------------------

9y= -9

y= -1

9y ÷ 9 causes the 9 to cancel out.

there and then what you do to one side you do to the other so -9 ÷ 9 is -1, so y= -1

Answer 2

y=-1

Explanation:

-6x+5y=1

(+) 6x+4y+-10

--------------------

9y=-9

----------

9 9

y=-1
