anonymous · Answer

yes. now you you add the three from the first equation to the three from the second equation giving you what? (3+3)

andijo76 · Answer

2x+y=6?

anonymous · Answer

sorry. i forgot about you

anonymous · Answer

yes your right

anonymous · Answer

now you would get 2x=6 because y-y=0

andijo76 · Answer

now dont i divide 2x on each side?

anonymous · Answer

yes then you would take what x equals and plug it in to both equations

anonymous · Answer

only plug in your answer to x into x ok? not y

andijo76 · Answer

okay and what i get is what my y is right?

anonymous · Answer

no. to get your y you would plug in 3(which is what x equals) and subtract it from the three on other side
