Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations.Choose the correct ordered pair. -x + y -2 , 2x -3y = 4​

Sagot :

Answer:

To use the elimination method one coefficient of either x or y must be the same number with opposite signs, so the ordered pair is (-10, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

2(-x+y=2) Make one of the coefficients equal, with opposite signs.

2x-3y=4  Combine equations.

-y=8 Solve, y=-8

Then find x, -x-8=2

-x=10, so x= -10

(-10, -8) is your answer.
