We can solve a system of linear equations using the method of elimination. The elimination method has us eliminate one of the variables from the system in order to solve for the value of the other variable, and then turn around and use that value to find the value of the eliminated variable.
Read MoreThere are three ways to solve systems of linear equations: substitution, elimination, and graphing. Substitution will have you substitute one equation into the other; elimination will have you add or subtract the equations to eliminate a variable; graphing will have you sketch both curves to visually find the points of intersection.
