You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If you multiply 2 by the first equation and add the 2 equations together, you can eliminate x.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-8x%2B6y=-2\"
\n" ); document.write( "+\"8x%2B6y=10\"
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"0x%2B12y=8\"
\n" ); document.write( "Now we can solve for y
\n" ); document.write( "\"12y=8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=8%2F12=2%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "Use this to find x.
\n" ); document.write( "\"8x%2B6%282%2F3%29=10\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"8x%2B4=10\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"8x=10-4\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"8x=6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=6%2F8=3%2F4\"
\n" ); document.write( "So our solution is (3/4,2/3)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
