Solve the following systems by elimination:
Solution:
Consider the given equations above
Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by -1, we have
Add the two equations in order to solve for the value of y.
Substitute the value of y to either of the two equations in order to solve for the value of x, we have
Therefore, the solutions of the two equations are:
