    You are an absolute legend. All the other videos on simultaneous equations talks about adding, taking away, dividing and multiplying but no body cares to explain why they are doing it or where they are getting the numbers from. I can not honestly stress how great full I’m for you this video.

    Fantastic not because you find the solution which was easy and could be find by inspection in a few seconds. Not for that, but is fantastic for the clarity and your will to pass on the info from your mind to others. Excellent, worth of praise.

    Why did you choose to change the 5 to -5? What's the concept?

    • @hackingmathsOFFICIAL
      @hackingmathsOFFICIAL  3 года назад

      6:10 All the coefficients (the numbers in front of the letters) are positive. In this case we are eliminating X, so we need to multiply the first equation by -5 and the second equation by 3. So when we add the equations together we multiply by -5. You could multiply by 5 and subtract the equations but that can cause more confusion.

    i need to ask, at the adding part, are you strictly suppose to add? When i subtracted i used the second equation to double check and it was correct but the first was wrong. when i added, i used the first to double check and it was correct but the second was wrong, please help

    • @Eat_Pi
      @Eat_Pi 3 года назад +2

      I'm assuming you understood how he got to:
      3x + -4 = 5
      Adding a negative number is the same thing as just subtracting so you could simplify it as:
      3x - 4 = 5
      To solve for X you first want get rid of the -4. So you need to add 4 to both sides of the equation:
      3x - 4 = 5
      +4 +4
      The 4s on the left side cancel out so you're left with:
      3x = 9
      To solve for x, just divide by 3 on both sides and you get:
      X=3
      Hope that helps! I make videos too so if you ever need more help don't hesitate to ask! ✌️

      So then, when you're adding both equations, the positive 15x (blue) and negative 15x (red) can cancel each other out. That makes it easier to solve for y

    • @hackingmathsOFFICIAL
      @hackingmathsOFFICIAL  5 лет назад +3

      To remove -4 you must add 4 to both sides of the equation. That is why you get a 9 on the RHS, and the -4 is removed from the LHS

      If you have a decimal number, it is best to remove it by multiplying it out.
      eg 1.5x + 3y = 1
      In this case I would multiply everything by 2. So it would become
      3x + 6y = 2

      @hackingmathsOFFICIAL  3 года назад

      If we solve and find x, then we use one of the equations to find y and the other equation to check.
      The reason you use the other equation is that if you have made a mistake, you won't notice that it is wrong if you use the same equation that you used to find y to check.
      That is why you use one question to find the variable and the other to check.
