Question

How do you solve the system using the elimination method for 4x+6y=24 and 4x-y=10?

Answer 1

I found:
`x=3`
`y=2`

Explanation:

Multiply the first equation by `-1`:
`{-4x-6y=-24`
`{4x-y=10` add them:
`0-7y=-14`
`y=-14/-7=2`
Substitute back into the first equation:
`4x+12=24`
`4x=12`
`x=12/4=3`
