Solve this system of equations by
using the elimination method.
3x + 10y = 22
-3x – 8y = -14
|([?], [])
Enter

y=8 x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

line them up

3x+10y=22

-3x-8y=-14

add the like terms to get

2y=8

divide by 2

y=4

plug in to any equation

3x+10(4)=22

3x+40=22

subtract 40

3x=-18

divide

x=-6

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
