Question

..

Answer 1

I'm assuming I have to find X and Y, then solve for Q... but how?

Answer 2

@Vocaloid

Answer 3

the way it's written is weird but they want you to find Q such that the two equations are equivalent

Answer 4

let's re-write our original equations:

x - 3y = 4
Qx - 6y = 8

Answer 5

doubling equation 1 gives us:

2x - 6y = 8
Qx - 6y = 8

any ideas what Q could be equal to now?

Answer 6

2?

Answer 7

awesome! Q = 2 = your answer

Answer 8

Wow I'm dumb... how did I not see that? *facepalm*
