Solve the system by elimination. 6x - y = -5 & 4x - 2y = 6
-------------
6x - y = -5
4x - 2y = 6 --> 2x - y = 3
--------
6x - y = -5
2x - y = 3
-------------------- Subtract

6x - y = -5
4x - 2y = 6

put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
6x - y = -5
4x - 2y = 6
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:

---
solution:
x = -2
y = -7
---
now by elimination:
---
-2(6x - y = -5)
4x - 2y = 6
---
-12x + 2y = 10
4x - 2y = 6
---
add the two equations:
---
-8x = 16
x = -2
---
4x - 2y = 6
4(-2) - 2y = 6
-8 - 2y = 6
-2y = 14
y = -7
---
solution by elimination:
x = -2
y = -7
