5x+7y=58
3x+2y=26
How do you solve the problem by eliminating

(6,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find a way to get X or Y by itself. (i choose to find x by itself)

Multiply the bottom equation by 3.5

5x+7y=58

10.5x+7y=91

Subtract 7y from both equations

5x=58

10.5x=91

Subtract 10.5 x from both equations

-5.5x=58

0x-91

Subtract 91 from both equations

-5.5x=-33

Multiply by -1 on both sides

5.5x=33

Divide by 5.5

x=6

Step 2: Now plug in 6 for x to solve

5(6)+7y=58

30+7y=58

Subtract 30 from both sides

7y=28

Divide by 7

y=4

Check other equation

3(6)+2y=26

18+2y=26

Subtract 18 from both sides

2y=8

Divide by 2

y=4

The point of intersection is (x,y), which is (6,4)

Hope this helps! Have an awesome weekend.

no association

step-by-step explanation:

if you have eyes and you can use them efficiently you can see that it just looks like random dots like do a line of best fit and like they're so spread out it's such a weak association you might as well consider it nonexistent
