Solving by elimination means adding or subtracting the equations so one variable cancels. There are 5 sheets for 8th grade here, each with an answer key. Students add to cancel opposites, subtract to cancel matching terms, then multiply one or both equations first. Elimination Door Puzzle, Sum of Coordinates sends students through twelve rooms using x + y. The sheets practice 8.EE.C.8.B.
