Lesson 8 4 solving systems by elimination with multiplication answers


Asked by admin @ in Mathematics viewed by 379 People


Follow the directions to solve the system of equations by elimination. 8x + 7y = 39 4x – 14y = –68 Multiply the first equation to enable the elimination of the y-term. Add the equations to eliminate the y-terms. Solve the new equation for the x-value. Substitute the x-value back into either original equation to find the y-value. Check the solution. The solution to the system of equations is (, ).

8x +7y = 39 multiply everything by 2
2(8x +7y = 39)
16x +14y = 78
+4x - 14y= -68
-------------------------
20x = 10
20x /20 = 10/20
x = 1/2

Plug x into first formula
8 x + 7y =39
8(1/2) 7y=39
4+ 7y =39
4-4+7y =39-4
7y =35
7y/7 = 35/7
y = 5
(1/2, 5)
