The system of equations are and .

Solve the system of equations by elimination method. \ \

                         (First equation)

              (Subtract from each side)

                         (Apply additive inverse property: )

Step 1:

Add the equations to eliminate a variable.

                     (Divide each side by )

                              (Cancel common terms)

Step 2:

Substitute into any original equation to find value.

                    (Second equation)

                  (Substitute )

                    (Multiply)

    (Subtract from each side)

                              (Apply additive inverse property: )

Therefore, the solutions are and .

The solution of the system is .
