Question

Directions: Solve the following system by the elimination method. 1/5 * x + y = 6/5; 1/10 * x + 1/3 * y = 7/10 Write answer as a coordinate point. Need help asap

Answer 1

Explanation:

Solve by the elimination method

x/5 + y = 6/5

x/10 + y/3 = 7/10

x + 5y = 6 |×2| 2x + 10y = 12

3x + 10y = 21 |×1| 3x + 10y = 22

__________ -

-x = -10

x = 10

x + 5y = 6

10 + 5y = 6

5y = 6 - 10

5y = -4

y = -4/5

Solution → (x,y) = (10 , -4/5)
