To solve the system of the two linear equations:
(Equation 1) (Equation 2)
We can use either the substitution method or the elimination method. In this case, we will use the elimination method.
First, we can multiply Equation 2 by 1 to already make it easier to eliminate
Next, we'll add both equations together to eliminate
The
This simplifies to:
Now, we solve for
Now that we have
This simplifies to:
Now, we’ll add
Dividing by
So the solution to the system of equations is:
Therefore, the answer is:
