3. Algebra 2 Use the elimination method to solve the system. Lesson 3-2 Solving Systems Algebraically 3x + y = –9 –3x – 2y = 12 y= –3 3x + (–3)= –9Substitute y. Solve for x. x= –2 The solution is (–2, –3). 3x + y= –9Choose one of the original equations. 3x + y = –9 –3x – 2y = 12Two terms are additive inverses, so add. –y = 3Solve for y. Additional Examples

5. Algebra 2 Solve each system by elimination. Lesson 3-2 Solving Systems Algebraically The two equations in the system represent parallel lines. The system has no solution. Multiply the first line by 2 to make the x terms additive inverses. –3x + 5y= 6 6x – 10y= 0 –6x + 10y= 12 6x – 10y= 0 0 = 12 a.–3x + 5y = 6 6x – 10y = 0 Additional Examples
