How do I determine patterns across the equation and down for the x values? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Patterns within systems of linear equations. Examine the constants in the first equation and describe any patterns. Repeat for the second equation.

2x-y=-4
How do I determine patterns across the equation and down for the x values?
---------------------------
"Discribe any patterns" is a very large order.
There are many patterns.
----
To solve the system,
Multiply thru the 1st equation by 2 to get:
2x + 4y = 6
2x - y =-4
------
Subtract the 2nd from the 1st and solve for "y":
5y = 10
y = 2
----
Substitute into 2x-y=-4 and solve for "x":
2x-2 = 4
x-1 = 2
x = 3
