Solve the following system of equations using elimination

Well elimination is basically multiplying a number to make it possible for it to cancel out

We can multiply the first equation by 2

2(x+2y=-1)

This would be

2x+4y=-2

Its still the same thing but just with non simplified numbers

We can now do any method really to solve

I will just do the subtraction method

2x+4y=-2

-2x+y=4

Solve

2x-2x=0

4y-y= 3y

-2-4= -6

3y= -6

Now solve

y=-2

To find x subsitute in “y” and find ”x”.

x+2*-2=-1

x-4=-1

x=3

y= -2

x= 3
