Answer:
-5x + 0y = -11
The y terms are eliminated
Step-by-step explanation:
- 4x – 2y = -2
X - 2y = 9
We want to subtract the second equation from the first
Distribute a minus sign to all the terms in the second equation
- 4x – 2y = -2
-( x - 2y = 9)
--------------------------
- 4x – 2y = -2
- x + 2y =- 9
------------------------
-5x + 0y = -11
The y terms are eliminated
