Answer:
Explanation:
Let's say we have 2x-y=4, and 4x-3=5y. So, elimination is basically what the name is. You eliminate one variable by subtracting and then plug in that variable to find the other one. So,
4x-3=5y
2x-y=4
Multiply 2x-y=4 by 2, to make it equal to the x value in the top.
4x-3=5y
-
4x-2y=8
Now, you can subtract the equations. You Eliminate the 4x, then you get
-3-2y=5y-8
Then you solve for y
y=7/5
then you plug y into the equation
4x-3 = (7/5)5
4x-3=7
4x=10
x=5/2
And you have your solution ----> (5/2, 7/5) is where the lines intersect.
Hope that helps!
