Julie is asked to solve the system below by elimination. which of the following steps would be the best way to begin?

Question

2x+y=-3?
3x-2y=2

Multiply equation 1 by 2 and multiply equation 2 by 3
Multiply equation 1 by 2 and multiply equation 2 by 3

Multiply equation 2 by 2
Multiply equation 2 by 2

Multiply equation 1 by 2
Multiply equation 1 by 2

Multiply equation 2 by 2 and multiply equation 1 by -2.

Answer 1

Multiply equation 1 by 2 and multiply equation 2 by 3.

Answer 2

simpler is just do C
Multiply equation 1 by 2
Then simple addition will eliminate y

Answer 3

Yes, that is also a valid method. Multiplying equation 1 by 2 would give:

4x + 2y = -6

Then, to eliminate y, we can add this equation to equation 2:

4x + 2y = -6
3x - 2y = 2

--------------
7x = -4

And then solve for x.
