So this is asking us to explain the steps we would use to solve the system of equations using linear combinations and then solve the system.
00:08
So the first step is i have to get everything lined up.
00:12
So i would rewrite the top equation into standard form.
00:22
So that way it's a x plus b y equals c because you can see right now i've got a y on top of an x and equal on top of a plus.
00:30
It's all kind of not really lined up.
00:33
But i do like the way the second equation looks.
00:36
Now, in order to do this, it's going to require subtracting 2x.
00:40
And i would put that in front of the y, and you're going to see this play out in a second.
00:43
But when you subtract 2x, that's going to make it negative 2x.
00:46
And so then negative 2x and 2x would be opposites.
00:49
So we won't need to multiply for linear combinations.
00:52
So then we can add our equations together.
00:56
This would cause the x to cancel, which means we'd find the y value.
01:04
And then once we have the y value, we need to sub back in, substitute back in to find x so that's what we would do we're going to rewrite this into standard form we're going to add our equations together that's going to allow us to find y and then we're going to substitute back in to find x so again like i said for this top equation we would subtract 2x from both sides and so that would become negative 2x plus 2y equals negative 2...
