6.3 Elimination with Multiplication! Objective
Bell Work 1. 2. Can you find the smiling penguin? Find two numbers whose sum is 58 and whose difference is 16 21, 37
Elimination using Multiplication #1 Consider the system 6x + 11y = -5 6x + 9y = -3
Elimination using Multiplication Consider the system 6x + 11y = -5 + 6x + 9y = -3 12x + 20y = -8 When we add equations together, nothing cancels out
Elimination using Multiplication Consider the system -1 ( ) 6x + 11y = -5 6x + 9y = -3
Elimination using Multiplication Consider the system - 6x - 11y = 5 + 6x + 9y = -3
Elimination using Multiplication Consider the system 6x + 11y = -5 6x + 9y = -3 Lets substitute y = -1 ANSWER: ( 1, -1 )
You Try 4x + y = 7 4x – 2y = -2 SOLUTION: (1, 3)
Elimination using Multiplication #2 Consider the system x + 2y = 6 Multiply by -3 to eliminate the x term 3x + 3y = -6
Elimination using Multiplication Consider the system -3 ( ) x + 2y = 6 3x + 3y = -6
Elimination using Multiplication Consider the system -3x + -6y = -18 + 3x + 3y = -6
Elimination using Multiplication Consider the system x + 2y = 6 Substitute y = 8 3x + 3y = -6 x + 2(8) = 6 ANSWER: (-10 , 8)
Examples 1. 2. x + 2y = 5 x + 2y = 4 2x + 6y = 12 x - 4y = 16 ANS: (3, 1) ANS: (8, -2)
