Question

Graph the two equations to solve the system. What is the ordered pair solution?
x + y = 6 and x - y = 4

Answer 1

Add both equations together

x + y = 6
x - y = 4
_________
2x = 10

Solve for x, then find the value for y.

Answer 2

Is y 4?

Answer 3

Did you find x? You have to find that first.

Answer 4

By the way, y is not 4. I have no idea how you got that.

Answer 5

yes ... x is 4 and y is 2 ... Sorry got them mixed up @Hero

Answer 6

That's not correct.

Answer 7

Explain to me something.....What method did you use to find x. Show me your steps. I get the feeling that you guessed.

Answer 8

Wait I see what I did wrong ... x is 6 right ?

Answer 9

You're guessing again. It almost seems as if there's not hope for you.

Answer 10

Ugh ,... I don't know ... I am not guessing but, I don't know how to get there ...

Answer 11

2x = 10
x = 10/2
x = 5
y =1

5 + 1 = 6
5 - 1 = 4
