Tyler is solving this system of equations: 4p + 2q =62
8p-q=59
He can think of two ways to eliminate a variable and solve the system:
Multiply 4p+2q=62 by 2, then subtract 8p-q=59 from the result.
Multiply 8p-q=59 by 2, then add the result to 4p+2q=62.
Do both strategies work for solving the system?
