Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.
Solve the pair of equations
{{n1}x+{n2}y}={ans1}(1){{n3}x+{n4}y}={ans2}(2)
We are going to solve for y first. To do this, we need to eliminate x from the equations. The quickest way to do this is to multiply the first equation by the co-efficient of x in the second equation (here {n3}), and multiply the second equation by the co-efficient of x in the first equation (here {n1}). We then get the equations:
We then subtract one new equation from the other to get:
Now we can work out y
y=
and substitute this value back in to any of the previous equations to get the value for x.
{{n1}x} +
which then solves to give x=
