a method to solving a system of equations by getting rid of one of the variables first to solve for the other variable. 

• Systems by Graphing

• Systems by Substitution

• Systems by Elimination

• Systems by Drawing

When using any of the 3 methods to solve a system of linear equations the resulting solution is the same no matter which method is used.

• True; using any method will result in the correct solution.

• False; the solution varies because the solution depends on which method is used.

Solve the system of equations using the elimination method:

3x + 2y - z = 6

2x - y + 3z = 4

4x + 3y + 2z = 9

• x = 4/5, y = 2, z = -3/5

• x = 0, y = 0, z = 0

• x = -2/3, y = 1/2, z = 1/4

• x = 1, y = 3, z = 2

Find the solution to the following system of equations using the elimination method: 2x + 3y - z = 5 3x - 2y + 4z = 7 4x + y + 2z = 3

• x = 2, y = -1, z = 1

• x = -2, y = 1, z = -1

• x = 1, y = 2, z = -1

• x = 3, y = -2, z = 2

Solve the system using elimination.
