    How to solve them

    1. Elimination: multiply one or both equations so a variable cancels when you add them.
    2. Solve for the variable that's left, then substitute it back to find the other.
    3. Check the pair (x, y) in both original equations.

    New to this? The short lesson on it has the rules in one place.

    Check the key only once you've finished. A wrong answer is useful: find the first line where your working went wrong, fix that, and redo the problem.
