Solve each system of linear equations using the elimination method. Show all your work.

1. Solve the system of equations:

x + y = 7

x - y = 3

2. Solve the system of equations:

2x + 3y = 11

x - y = 3

3. To eliminate a variable, you may need to multiply one or both equations by a so that the coefficients of one variable are and .

4. The elimination method can only be used if one of the variables has opposite coefficients.

True

False

5. Which of the following systems would be easiest to solve using elimination without any multiplication?

2x + y = 5 x + 3y = 10

3x - 2y = 8 3x + 4y = 2

x + 2y = 7 -x + 5y = 14

4x + y = 1 2x - 3y = 15

6. Solve the system of equations:

3x + 2y = 16

5x - 3y = -3
