Q. 83
Question
Write a brief paragraph outlining your strategy for solving a system of two linear equations containing two variables.
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
We solve the method of substitution or method of elimination
1Step 1: Given information
We are given a system of two equation in two unknowns
2Step 2: Explanation
If we have two unknowns x and y then from the first equation we can express either one in in the form of other and then substitute the value in other equation. or we can multiply by an integer such that the coefficient of one variables are equal but of opposite sign Then we add the equations and one variable gets eliminated. And then by substitution we find the other variable
