Objectives Solve systems of linear equations in two variables by elimination. Compare and choose an appropriate method for solving systems of linear equations.

Another method for solving systems of equations is elimination. Like substitution, the goal of elimination is to get one equation that has only one variable.

Solving Systems of Equations by Elimination Step 1 Write the system so that like terms are aligned. Step 2 Eliminate one of the variables and solve for the other variable. Step 3 Substitute the value of the variable into one of the original equations and solve for the other variable. Write the answers from Steps 2 and 3 as an ordered pair, (x, y), and check. Step 4

Later in this lesson you will learn how to multiply one or more equations by a number in order to produce opposites that can be eliminated.

Example 1: Elimination Using Addition 3x – 4y = 10 Solve by elimination. x + 4y = –2 Step 1 3x – 4y = 10 Align like terms. −4y and +4y are opposites. x + 4y = –2 Step 2 Add the equations to eliminate y. 4x + 0 = 8 4x = 8 Simplify and solve for x. 4x = 8 4 4 x = 2 Divide both sides by 4.

Example 1 Continued Step 3 x + 4y = –2 Write one of the original equations. 2 + 4y = –2 Substitute 2 for x. –2 –2 4y = –4 Subtract 2 from both sides. 4y –4 4 4 y = –1 Divide both sides by 4. Step 4 (2, –1) Write the solution as an ordered pair.

Check It Out! Example 1 y + 3x = –2 Solve by elimination. 2y – 3x = 14 Align like terms. 3x and −3x are opposites. Step 1 2y – 3x = 14 y + 3x = –2 Add the equations to eliminate x. Step 2 3y + 0 = 12 3y = 12 Simplify and solve for y. y = 4 Divide both sides by 3.

Check It Out! Example 1 Continued Write one of the original equations. Step 3 y + 3x = –2 4 + 3x = –2 Substitute 4 for y. –4 –4 3x = –6 Subtract 4 from both sides. Divide both sides by 3. 3x = –6 3 3 x = –2 Write the solution as an ordered pair. Step 4 (–2, 4)

When two equations each contain the same term, you can subtract one equation from the other to solve the system. To subtract an equation, add the opposite of each term.

Example 2: Elimination Using Subtraction 2x + y = –5 Solve by elimination. 2x – 5y = 13 2x + y = –5 Step 1 Both equations contain 2x. Add the opposite of each term in the second equation. –(2x – 5y = 13) 2x + y = –5 –2x + 5y = –13 0 + 6y = –18 Step 2 Eliminate x. 6y = –18 y = –3 Simplify and solve for y.

Example 2 Continued Write one of the original equations. Step 3 2x + y = –5 2x + (–3) = –5 Substitute –3 for y. 2x – 3 = –5 +3 +3 Add 3 to both sides. 2x = –2 Simplify and solve for x. x = –1 Step 4 (–1, –3) Write the solution as an ordered pair.

Remember to check by substituting your answer into both original equations.

Check It Out! Example 2 3x + 3y = 15 Solve by elimination. –2x + 3y = –5 3x + 3y = 15 –(–2x + 3y = –5) Step 1 Both equations contain 3y. Add the opposite of each term in the second equation. 3x + 3y = 15 + 2x – 3y = +5 Step 2 5x + 0 = 20 Eliminate y. 5x = 20 x = 4 Simplify and solve for x.

Check It Out! Example 2 Continued Write one of the original equations. Step 3 3x + 3y = 15 3(4) + 3y = 15 Substitute 4 for x. 12 + 3y = 15 –12 –12 3y = 3 Subtract 12 from both sides. Simplify and solve for y. y = 1 Write the solution as an ordered pair. (4, 1) Step 4

In some cases, you will first need to multiply one or both of the equations by a number so that one variable has opposite coefficients.

Example 3A: Elimination Using Multiplication First Solve the system by elimination. x + 2y = 11 –3x + y = –5 Multiply each term in the second equation by –2 to get opposite y-coefficients. x + 2y = 11 Step 1 –2(–3x + y = –5) x + 2y = 11 +(6x –2y = +10) Add the new equation to the first equation to eliminate y. 7x + 0 = 21 Step 2 7x = 21 x = 3 Solve for x.

Example 3A Continued Write one of the original equations. Step 3 x + 2y = 11 3 + 2y = 11 Substitute 3 for x. –3 –3 2y = 8 Subtract 3 from both sides. Solve for y. y = 4 Step 4 (3, 4) Write the solution as an ordered pair.

Example 3B: Elimination Using Multiplication First Solve the system by elimination. –5x + 2y = 32 2x + 3y = 10 Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 5 to get opposite x-coefficients Step 1 2(–5x + 2y = 32) 5(2x + 3y = 10) –10x + 4y = 64 +(10x + 15y = 50) Add the new equations to eliminate x. Step 2 19y = 114 y = 6 Solve for y.

Example 3B Continued Write one of the original equations. Step 3 2x + 3y = 10 2x + 3(6) = 10 Substitute 6 for y. 2x + 18 = 10 –18 –18 2x = –8 Subtract 18 from both sides. x = –4 Solve for x. Step 4 Write the solution as an ordered pair. (–4, 6)

Check It Out! Example 3a Solve the system by elimination. 3x + 2y = 6 –x + y = –2 Multiply each term in the second equation by 3 to get opposite x-coefficients. Step 1 3x + 2y = 6 3(–x + y = –2) 3x + 2y = 6 +(–3x + 3y = –6) 0 + 5y = 0 Add the new equation to the first equation. Simplify and solve for y. 5y = 0 y = 0 Step 2

Check It Out! Example 3a Continued Write one of the original equations. Step 3 –x + y = –2 –x + 3(0) = –2 Substitute 0 for y. –x + 0 = –2 Solve for x. –x = –2 x = 2 Step 4 Write the solution as an ordered pair. (2, 0)

Check It Out! Example 3b Solve the system by elimination. 2x + 5y = 26 –3x – 4y = –25 Multiply the first equation by 3 and the second equation by 2 to get opposite x-coefficients Step 1 3(2x + 5y = 26) +(2)(–3x – 4y = –25) 6x + 15y = 78 +(–6x – 8y = –50) Add the new equations to eliminate x. 0 + 7y = 28 Step 2 y = 4 Solve for y.

Check It Out! Example 3b Continued Write one of the original equations. Step 3 2x + 5y = 26 2x + 5(4) = 26 Substitute 4 for y. 2x + 20 = 26 –20 –20 2X = 6 Subtract 20 from both sides. Solve for x. x = 3 Step 4 Write the solution as an ordered pair. (3, 4)

All systems can be solved in more than one way All systems can be solved in more than one way. For some systems, some methods may be better than others.
