Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. Choose the

correct ordered pair.

10x+2y = 22

3x - 4y = - 21

A

3.8)

B. (2.5)

Oo oo

C. (5.4)

OD (1.6)

The correct answer is D. (1,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

When plugged into the equations, it is written 10 (1) + 2 (6) = 22 and 3 (1) - 4 (6) = - 21. For the first one, 10 x 1 = 10 and 2 x 6 = 12. 10 + 12 = 22. For the second one, 3 x 1 = 3 and 4 x 6 = 24. 3 - 24 = - 21. This makes both equations correct, making (1,6) the answer.
