A student solved the following system of equations incorrectly using these steps:
2x + 5y = 13
-x + 4y = 13
What error did the student make?
In line 2, the student forgot to multiply the
right side of the equation by 2.
In line 3, the student should have subtracted
the equations instead of adding them.
In line 3, the student added the two equations
incorrectly
In line 5. the student used an incorrect
equation when solving for x
1 2x + 5y = 13
2 + -2x + 8y = 13
3
13y = 26
4
y = 2
DONE
