4x-2y = 6 2x+y = 6 use substitution by using the first equation to make x as the function of y \[x = (6 +2y)/4 \] then, use substitution again by substituting the second equation by the first \[2(6-2y)/4+y = 6\] <---- simplify this expression and you'll get 8y = 12 divide each side by 8 you'll get y=12/8 now we found out y, use y = 12/8 or 1.5 back into the x as a function of y: x = (6+2(1.5))/4 = 2.25
