Exemplo 5 de Algebra and Trigonometry, 11.1 Systems of Linear Equations: Two Variables
Problema e solução em inglês, como no livro original.
Solve the given system of equations by the addition method.
Resolva no papel primeiro. Depois abra a solução um passo de cada vez e pare assim que conseguir terminar sozinho.
Adding these equations as presented will not eliminate a variable. However, we see that the first equation has in it and the second equation has So if we multiply the second equation by the x-terms will add to zero.
Now, let’s add them.
For the last step, we substitute into one of the original equations and solve for
Our solution is the ordered pair See Figure 6. Check the solution in the original second equation.
O Try It do livro logo depois deste exemplo: mesma ideia, outros números. Só a resposta é dada.
