Answer:
(2, 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
6x + 2y = 20 → (1)
5x - 2y = 2 → (2)
Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the y- term
11x + 0 = 22
11x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (1)
6(2) + 2y = 20
12 + 2y = 20 ( subtract 12 from both sides )
2y = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = 4
solution is (2, 4 )
