Answer:
Well elimination is basically multiplying a number to make it possible for it to cancel out
We can multiply the first equation by 2
2(x+2y=-1)
This would be
2x+4y=-2
Its still the same thing but just with non simplified numbers
We can now do any method really to solve
I will just do the subtraction method
2x+4y=-2
-2x+y=4
Solve
2x-2x=0
4y-y= 3y
-2-4= -6
3y= -6
Now solve
y=-2
To find x subsitute in “y” and find ”x”.
x+2*-2=-1
x-4=-1
x=3
y= -2
x= 3
