That is a system of equations; not an "elimination equation".

You can try multiplying your equation #2 by -2, and then add the corresponding members.

Adding, find

If you want elimination to find for x, then at the original system, multiply #1 by 4 and multiply #2 by -3. Then, add the corresponding members,...

Note that there is also another way for finding x. Equation #2 can first be simplified as . Equivalent system can be shown as:
.
