Given the systems of linear equation:
3x - 2y = -39x + 2y = 35
This can be written as,
3x - 2y = -39x + 2y - 35
Solve using elimination.
Solution:
In order to solve using elimination, we simply need to transpose 3x - 2y to the other side of the equation, hence it must be taken to note that in transposing a number, the sign changes.
3x - 2y = -39x + 2y - 35
= -39x + 2y - 35 - 3x + 2y
= -36x + 4y - 35
FInal answer:
= -36x + 4y - 35
