Francine solves the system of equations using the linear combination method. 4x+3y=−1 3x−5y=4 which steps would allow her to eliminate the x terms in the system of equations? a. multiply 4x+3y=−1 by 3. multiply 3x−5y=4 by −4 . add the resulting equations together. b. multiply 4x+3y=−1 by 4. multiply 3x−5y=4 by 3. add the resulting equations together. c. multiply 4x+3y=−1 by 5. multiply 3x−5y=4 by 3. add the resulting equations together. d. multiply 4x+3y=−1 by −4 . multiply 3x−5y=4 by 3. add the resulting equations together.

Multiply 4x+3y=−1 by 3. Multiply 3x−5y=4 by −4 . Add the resulting equations together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equation below:

4x+3y=−1 ...(1) × 3

3x−5y=4 ...(2) × -4

Using elimination method to solve the problem,

Before we can eliminate x, the coefficient of x in both equation must have similar whole number as coefficient.

To make the coefficient equal, we will multiply equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by -4 as shown above

The equations will then become

12x+9y = -3

-12x+20y = -16

Then we will add the resulting simultaneous equations.

The steps that would allow her to eliminate the x terms in the system of equations is to "Multiply 4x+3y=−1 by 3. Multiply 3x−5y=4 by −4 . Add the resulting equations together"
