Answer to Problem 2SGR

The complete statement is “The elimination method is an algebraic method for solving systems of linear equations that eliminates a variable by adding or subtracting the equations”.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The statement “The ——————— is an algebraic method for solving systems of linear equations that eliminates a variable by adding or subtracting the equations”.

Consider the provided statement “The ——————— is an algebraic method for solving systems of linear equations that eliminates a variable by adding or subtracting the equations”.

In a system of two or more equations add or subtract the equation if variable is same in both the equations. Then eliminate it accordingly.

For example: consider the system of equations

  x−3y=62x+3y=6

Use the method of elimination to solve the system above.

Add both the equations,

  x−3y=62x+3y=6+3x+0=12

Therefore,

  3x=12x=4

Now substitute x=4 in the equation x−3y=6 ,

  4−3y=6−3y=2y=−23

Therefore, solution is the coordinate pair, (4,−32).

Thus, the complete statement is “The elimination method is an algebraic method for solving systems of linear equations that eliminates a variable by adding or subtracting the equations”.
