Solve the below systems of equations using linear combination method. 2x + 3y =1. and y= -2x - 9. explain

Solving below systems of equations using linear combination method we get

x = -7

y =  5

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear combinations which is also commonly known as the addition method is used for solving the system of equations without graphs

Step 1: arrange the equation in standard form

2x + 3y = 1----------------------(1)

2x +  y  =  -9--------------------(2)

Step 2: Set one of the coefficient to opposite sides

So lets multiply eq(2) with negative sign, so

2x + 3y = 1

-2x -  y  =  9

Step 3: Perform Addition

2x + 3y = 1

-2x -  y  =  9

-----------------------

0x +2y = 10

--------------------------

Step 4: Solve for y

2y =10

y = 5

Step 5: Substitute y value in equation(1)

2x + 3(5) = 1

2x + 15 =1

2x = 1-15

2x =-14

x = -7

3/5

step-by-step explanation:

double number line is not a standard concept, so it must have been defined in your textbook. assume top line is numerator.
