Systems by Algebraic Methods (pp. 4 of 4)<br />

Algebra 2<br />

HS Mathematics<br />

Unit: 05 Lesson: 01<br />

Finally, you can multiply BOTH equations by a constant, so that when they are combined, a variable<br />

will be eliminated. Then solve the system.<br />

Ex.<br />

8x<br />

3y<br />

41<br />

( 5)<br />

<br />

_____________ = 205<br />

6x<br />

5y<br />

39 ( )<br />

<br />

_____________ = -117<br />

_____________ = 88<br />

_______ + _______ = _____ _________ = ______<br />

Solution: (4, 3)<br />

MULTIPLY <br />

the equations by constants so<br />

that something will “cancel”<br />

ADD (or COMBINE) <br />

the equations together<br />

SOLVE <br />

the resulting equation<br />

PLUG <br />

the value back into an original<br />

equation to find the other<br />

variable<br />
