does the statement "Solve this system by elimination since it is already in standard form and lined up nicely." that correctly describe the solution to this system of equations?

No, the statement does not correctly describe the solution to this system of equations. The statement refers to solving the system by elimination, but it does not provide any steps or explanation on how to use elimination to solve the system. Additionally, the statement assumes that the system is already in standard form and lined up nicely, which may not necessarily be the case.
