    The document describes how to solve systems of equations by elimination. It provides two examples: (a) solving 10x - 3y = 29 and 4x + 8y = 13 for x and y, and (b) solving 0.02x + 0.5y = -4.34, x - y = 19, and 1/5x - 3/2y = 0 for x and y. It also gives a word problem about determining the number of quarters (Q) and dimes (D) in a piggy bank, where the equations are Q + D = 362 and 0.25Q + 0.10D = 54.35.

    Solving by Elimination – Advanced Techniques

    Solve the following systems of equations:

    a) 10x – 3y = 29
    4x + 8y = 13

    b) 0.02x  0.5y  4.34


    1 5
    x  y  19
    2 3
    A piggy bank is full of quarters (Q) and dimes (D).

    Q + D = 362
    0.25Q + 0.10D = 54.35

    a) Describe what each equation tells you about the dimes and quarters.

    b) Determine how many dimes are in the bank.
