Answer:

you would multiply by 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

In order to solve this system of equations through elimination, the sum of either the x or y values will have to equal 0. To eliminate x, you would have to find what, when added, will make the sum 0. In this case, a positive 9 will cancel out the -9 and give us 0. All we have to do is multiply the top equation by 3 so that the x value is equal to 9x!

I hope this helps!
