In which line is a mistake first made when solving the following system of equations by elimination for s?

2r + 7s = 11
r - 9s = -7

Line 1 2r + 7s = 11
2(r - 9s = -7)
Line 2 2r + 7s = 11
2r - 18s = -14
Line 3 -11s = -3
Line 4 s = 11/3




a.) Line 1
b.) Line 2
c.) Line 3
d.) Line 4

Let us look at simple solution:-
2r + 7s = 11
-2r +18s = 14____ADD
25S= 25
S = 1
2R + 7 = 11
R = 2

R= 2 ,S =1

Line 3 has a mistake.
 2r + 7s = 11
-(2r - 18s = -14)
-------------------
    25x = 25

x = 5

c) Line 3 is the first incorrect line

In line 2:
2r + 7s = 11
2r − 18s = −14

Now to get rid of r, you must SUBTRACT the 2nd equation from 1st giving:
(2r+7s)−(2r−18s) = (11)−(−14)

Line 3: 25s = 25
Line 4: s = 1
