A student uses the substitution method to solve the system of equations below algebraically.

2x – y = 5
3x + 2y = -3

Which equation could be used?


3x + 2(2x – 5) = -3

3x + 2(5 – 2x) = -3

3(y + 5/2) + 2y = -3

3(5/2 – y) + 2y = -3

==============================

Which linear system has been correctly solved for one of the variables from the following system?

2x – y = -1
2x + y = -7


2 x space minus space y space equals space minus 1 space_x000D_
y space equals space 2 x space minus space 7

2 x space minus space y space equals space minus 1 space_x000D_
y space equals space minus 2 x space plus space 7

y space equals space 2 x space plus space 1 space_x000D_
2 x space plus space y space equals space minus 7

y space equals space minus 2 x space plus space 7 space_x000D_
2 x space plus space y space equals space minus 7

============================

Which linear system has the solution (6, 6)?


3 x space plus space y space equals space 4_x000D_
4 x space minus space 3 y space equals space 1

4 x space plus space 3 y space equals space 0_x000D_
2 x space minus space y space equals space 0

4 x space minus space 3 y space equals space minus 1 space space_x000D_
minus 2 x space plus space y space equals space minus 3

x space plus space y space equals space 12 space_x000D_
3 x space minus space 2 y space equals space 6

========================

A student is using the elimination method to solve the system of equations below. What is the best first step?

=================================

In which line is a mistake first made when solving the following system of equations by elimination for s?

2r + 7s = 11
r – 9s = -7

Line 1 2r + 7s = 11
2(r – 9s = -7)
Line 2 2r + 7s = 11
2r – 18s = -14
Line 3 -11s = -3
Line 4 s = 11/3

==============================
