Question

2x - 6y = 5

x + y = 2

Solve the system of equations.

Answer 1

multiply the 2nd eq by2

2x+2y=4

2x-6y=5

8y=-1 y= -1/8 find x

Answer 2

If the second eqn is doubled and subtracted from first eqn, what u get?

Answer 3

If \[x+y=2\] then,
\[y=-1/8\] therefore,
by putting value of y in the eq. \[x+y=2\]
u can also get the value of x:)
