Answer:

Explanation:

Method to solve system by elimination :

Let me give an example :

a(x) + b(y) = c

d(x) + e(y) = f

multiply equation 1 by d and 2 by a

ad(x) + bd(y) = cd

ad(x) + ae(y) = a(f)

Now subtract or add as given in the situation .

y(bd - ae) = cd - a(f)

y = (cd - a(f))/(bd - ae)

Now put the value of y in 1 or 2 and get the value of x
