Question 923758: {4x+y=24
X+2y=2
Answer by stanbon(75887)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 4x+y=24
X+2y=2
--------------------
Modify for elimination::
8x + 2y = 48
x + 2y = 2
----
Subtract and solve for "x":
7x = 46
x = 6 4/7
---------
Solve for "y"::
x + 2y = 2
46/7 + 2y = 14/7
2y = -32/7
y = -16/7
