What is the solution of the system? 10x+3y=50 -5x-y=-20
Accepted Solution
A:
Answer:The solution is (2, 10)Step-by-step explanation:In order to solve this system of equations, multiply the second equation by 2, then add through. This will allow the x terms to cancel. 10x + 3y = 50-10x - 2y = -40---------------------y = 10Now that we have y, plug in and find x. -5x - y = -20-5x - 10 = -20-5x = -10x = 2
