to solve this system of equations by elimination, what operation could be used to eliminate the y-variable and find the value of x?

6x + 5y = 2

4x + 2y = 8

a) subtract 2 times the second equation from 3 times the first equation

b) subtract 3 times the second equation from 2 times the first equation

c) subtract 5 times the second equation from 2 times the first equation

d) subtract 2 times the second equation from 5 times the first equation

C)subtract 5 times the second equation from 2 times the first equation

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to eliminate the y variable so the coefficients have to be the same and opposite

6x + 5y = 2  

4x + 2y = 8

Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 5.  Then subtract the second equation from the first

2(6x + 5y) = 2*2

12x +10y = 4  

5( 4x + 2y) = 8*5

20x + 10y = 40

12x +10y = 4  

-( 20x + 10y = 40)

-8x = -36

step-by-step explanation: yes
