solve the system using elimination. 4x+5y=2 -2x+2y=8 ( ? , ? )

Sagot :

Answer:

(-2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

4x + 5y = 2

-2x + 2y = 8

To solve using elimination, we can multiply the second equation by 2 to try and get rid of the x. So...

4x + 5y = 2

-4x + 4y = 16

Now, add...

9y = 18

Divide by 9...

y = 2

Now, let's solve for x...

4x + 5(2) = 2

4x + 10 = 2

4x = -8

x = -2

Your solution is, (-2,2)

I hope this helps :)
