3x -4y = 5

5x +4y = 3

(1) Would you be eliminating terms with the x or the y variables?
(2) Would you use addition or subtraction to eliminate the terms?

Explanation:

  1. You would eliminate the terms with the y variables.
  2. You would use addition because you are trying to eliminate y to find the value of x.
