Exemplo 5.28 de Elementary Algebra, 5.3 Solve Systems of Equations by Elimination
Problema e solução em inglês, como no livro original.
Solve the system by elimination.
Resolva no papel primeiro. Depois abra a solução um passo de cada vez e pare assim que conseguir terminar sozinho.
In this example, we cannot multiply just one equation by any constant to get opposite coefficients. So we will strategically multiply both equations by a constant to get the opposites.
| Both equations are in standard form. To get opposite coefficients of y, we will multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 3. |
|
| Simplify. | |
| Add the two equations to eliminate y. | |
| Solve for x. Substitute x = 0 into one of the original equations. |
|
| Solve for y. | |
| Write the solution as an ordered pair. | The ordered pair is (0, −3). |
| Check that the ordered pair is a solution to both original equations. |
|
| The solution is (0, −3). |
What other constants could we have chosen to eliminate one of the variables? Would the solution be the same?
