Ответ:
I'll choose 'x' variable first to eliminate because -
-3 (coefficient of 'x' in Eqn.1) & 3 (coefficient of 'x' in Eqn.2) are additive inverses of each other , so they can be easily eliminated by simply adding those equations. It can be also solved by using elimination method but you'll need to multiply -1 with either Eqn.1 or Eqn.2 because in elimination method , a variable can be eliminated only when their coefficients are numerically equal (along with their sign).Step-by-step explanation:
Eqn.1 → -3x - 8y = -24
Eqn.2 → 3x - 5y = 45
If we'll add both the equations , then '3x' would be getting cancelled first.
⇒![(-3x - 8y) + (3x - 5y) = (-24) + (45)](/tpl/images/1318/0625/d93c3.png)
⇒![3x - 3x - 8y - 5y = 45 - 24](/tpl/images/1318/0625/baeaa.png)
⇒![-13y = 21](/tpl/images/1318/0625/5c389.png)
⇒![y = \frac{-21}{13}](/tpl/images/1318/0625/63e3a.png)
Putting the value of y in eqn.2 ,
⇒![3x - 5(\frac{-21}{13}) = 45](/tpl/images/1318/0625/3103a.png)
⇒![3x + \frac{105}{13} = 45](/tpl/images/1318/0625/3014e.png)
⇒![3x = 45 - \frac{105}{13}](/tpl/images/1318/0625/55392.png)
⇒![3x = \frac{585 - 105}{13} = \frac{480}{13}](/tpl/images/1318/0625/35718.png)
⇒![x = \frac{480}{13 \times 3} = \frac{480}{39}](/tpl/images/1318/0625/f7598.png)
Reducing the fraction gives ,
⇒![x = \frac{160}{13}](/tpl/images/1318/0625/084a4.png)
