Jordan wants to solve the following system using the elimination method:

2x + 3y = 10
x + y = 7

What number should the equation x + y = 7 be multiplied by to eliminate y?


-2
2
-3
3

Respuesta :

Leader
In the first equation, we have 3y. In the second equation we have y.

If we multiply the second equation by 3, then if we subtract both the equations, we will be able to eliminate y.

If we multiply the second equation by -3, then if we add both the equations, we will be able to eliminate y.

The answer to your question is: 3 and -3.

Answer:

The answer is -3.
