There are 3 available methods - Substitution , Elimination and Matrix.

The substitution method is used to eliminate one of the variables by replacement.

The elimination method is used for solving linear systems.

A Matrix is an array of numbers.

Lets use Substitution to solve this system.


x+3y=0


x=-3y

Substitute
x=-3y into
2x+6y=12



2x+6y=12


2*-3y+6y=12


0=12
