The correct answer is C. Add the equations in step 1 to eliminate one variable

By adding the equations in step 1, you eliminate the y variable so that you are able to solve for x.

Answer:

C)Add the equations in step 1 to eliminate one variable

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a system of equations as

[tex]2x+4y=20\\5x-3y=11[/tex]

Step I is to multiply I equation by 3 and ii equation by 4

Step 2 will be to add both equations arrived in step I so that y will be eliminated.

We get 26x=104

x=4

and y =9

Thus correct answer is C)
