5. Section 7.3 “Solve Linear Systems by Adding or Subtracting”
ELIMINATION-
adding or subtracting equations to obtain a new equation in one variable.
Solving Linear Systems Using Elimination
(1) Add or Subtract the equations to eliminate one variable.
(2) Solve the resulting equation for the other variable.
(3) Substitute in either original equation to find the value of the eliminated variable.

2x + 3y = 11
Equation 1 +
-2x + 5y = 13
Equation 2
8y = 24
y = 3
2x + 3y = 11
Equation 1
Substitute value for
y into either of the original equations
2x + 3(3) = 11
2x + 9 = 11
x = 1
2(1) + 3(3) = 11
11 = 11
The solution is the point (1,3).
Substitute (1,3) into both equations to check.
-2(1) + 5(3) = 13
13 = 13

7. Section 7.4 “Solve Linear Systems by Multiplying First”
ELIMINATION-
adding or subtracting equations to obtain a new equation in one variable.
Solving Linear Systems Using Elimination
(1) Multiply the whole equation by a constant in order to be able to eliminate a variable.
(2) Add or Subtract the equations to eliminate one variable.
(3) Solve the resulting equation for the other variable.
(4) Substitute in either original equation to find the value of the eliminated variable.
