Solve the system of equations by elimintion express the solution as and order paired -5 - 2y = -12
3x +2y = 8

First convert the first equation to combine like terms. Then set your equations up as an addition problem. You want at least one of your variables (y) to be of opposite values so the will cancel out to leave you with just one variable (x). Plug in 1/3 for the x into one of the equations to solve for y. Then write as an ordered pair.

I'll do the first one for you. it isn't very hard at all.on number one, you have (50 × 3), which equals 150, and (3 × 3), which equals 9. after you establish that, you add 150 and 9 together. so, (150 + 9) equals 159.this means that 53 × 3 = 159.
