Solving by Elimination To solve by elimination: (1) Multiply one or both equations to create matching coefficients. (2) Take the difference of the equations to eliminate one variable. (3) Solve for the value of the other variable. (4) Use this value in either equation to solve for the value of the first variable.
Solving by Elimination Example: 3𝑥+4𝑦=12 2𝑥+𝑦=10 (1) Multiply one or both equations to create matching coefficients. 4 2𝑥+𝑦=10 ⇒ 8𝑥+4𝑦=40
Solving by Elimination Example: (2) Take the difference of the equations to eliminate one variable. 8𝑥+4𝑦=40 3𝑥+4𝑦=12 5𝑥=28
Solving by Elimination Example: (3) Solve for the value of the variable. 5𝑥=28 𝑥=5.6
Solving by Elimination Example: (4) Use this value in either equation to solve for the value of the first variable. 2𝑥+𝑦=10 2 5.6 +𝑦=10 𝑦=−1.2
Solving by Elimination Example: 3𝑥+4𝑦=12 2𝑥+𝑦=10 Solution: Both lines pass through (5.6, −1.2)
