What is the formula of eliminate?
The elimination method for solving systems of linear equations uses the addition property of equality. You can add the same value to each side of an equation. So if you have a system: x – 6 = −6 and x + y = 8, you can add x + y to the left side of the first equation and add 8 to the right side of the equation.
How do you solve by elimination with two variables?
Example 1
- Arrange both equations in standard form, placing like terms one above the other.
- Select a variable to eliminate, say y.
- Add the new equations, eliminating y.
- Solve for the remaining variable.
- Substitute for x and solve for y.
- Check the solution in the original equation.
- These are both true statements.

What is the solution of simultaneous equations?
In simple terms, the solution to a pair of simultaneous equations is the x and y values of the coordinates of the point at which the graphs cross or intersect.
