8. Solve the system using elimination.
3x - 4y = 9
- 3x + 2y = 9

Sagot :

Answer:

3x−4y=9 −3x+2y=9

Add these equations to eliminate x: −2y=18

Then solve−2y=18

for y: −2y=18 −2y −2 = 18 −2 (Divide both sides by -2)

y=−9

Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.

Write down an original equation: 3x−4y=9

Substitute−9for y in 3x−4y=9: 3x−(4)(−9)=9

3x+36=9(Simplify both sides of the equation)

3x+36+−36=9+−36(Add -36 to both sides)

3x=−27 3x 3 = −27 3 (Divide both sides by 3) x=−9

Answer: x=−9 and y=−9
