SOLUTION: Need to double-check this equation please:
Solve the system by the addition method:
(1/6) x + (1/4) y = -2
x – y = -6
12(1/6 x+1/4 y)=12(-2)
2x+3y= -24
3(x-y) = 3(-6)
3x-3y=

You obtained the correct coordinate values for the ordered pair that comprises the solution set, but you did something in the very last step that is incorrect.
Your solution:
This is perfectly ok to do, but it doesn't get you to the final answer. The above gets you to:
