The linear combination method is applied to a system of equations as shown. 4(.25x + .5y = 3.75) → x + 2y = 15 (4x – 8y = 12) → x – 2y = 3 2x = 18 what is the solution of the system of equations?

(9, 3)  

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) 4(0.25x + 0.5 y) = 3.75 ⟶ x + 2y = 15

(2)                 4x - 8y = 12 ⟶ x  -  2y =   3

                                                    2x = 18

                                                       x = 9

                                               9 - 2y = 3

                                                   -2y = -6

                                                      y = 3

The solution of the system of equations is (9, 3).
