    Elimination method steps
    Step 1:label the equations

    Step 2: which variable has the same number in front of?

    Step 3: Subtract if the signs are the same.


    Add if the signs are different.

    Step 4:find both x and y


    1) Solve x + 8y = 26
    x+y = 5
     Step 1 : x + 8y = 26 1
    x+y = 5 2
     Step 2 : which variable has the same number in front of?
     Variable x ,so we will eliminate x

     Step 3 : Subtract if the signs are the same, add if the signs are different.

     Step 3 : Subtract x + 8y = 26
    - x+y = 5
    7y = 21
    y = 3
    X=2
     Step 4 : find x , use equation 1 or 2

    x + 8y = 26
    x + 8x3 =26
    x + 24 = 26
    X=2
    2) Solve 2x + 3y = 16
    4x – 3y = -4
     Step 1: 2x + 3y = 16 1
    4x – 3y = -4 2
     step 2 : which variable has the same number in front of?
     Variable y ,so we will eliminate y
     Step 3 : Subtract if the signs are the same, add if the signs are different.
     Step 3 : Add 2x + 3y = 16

    7x = 28
    x = 4
     Step 4 : find y , use equation 1 or 2
    X=4
    2x – 3y = 11 Y = -1
    2×4 – 3y = 11
    8 – 3y = 11
    - 3y = 3
    y = -1
    4) Solve 2x + 3y = -2
    2x – 2y = 28
     Step 1: 2x + 3y = -2 1
    2x – 2y = 28 2
     step 2 : which variable has the same number in front of?
     Variable x ,so we will eliminate x
     Step 3 : Subtract if the signs are the same, add if the signs are different.
     Step 3 : subtract 2x + 3y = -2
