@esshotwired can you help or

Answer 4

Yes, I can help ;)

Answer 5

ess pls

Answer 6

>_> fine gimme a second

Answer 7

hey can you rearrange one of the equations in terms of x or y?

Answer 8

So first you want to try and make either the x or y values the same but with opposite signs. For this one, it would be pretty easy to do the y value, so multiply the top equation by 2.
(3x-y=4)2
6x-2y=8

Now take that new equation and the second original equation and add them together.
x+2y=13
6x-2y=4
---------
7x = 17

Does that make sense?

Answer 9

Did you ever solve for x and y?
