Question 423448
multiply 2nd equation by -2 and add to 1st equation
___ this will eliminate the x terms, because the coefficients will have the same number but different signs


[-2x + 4y] + [2x - 3y] = [-4] + [8]


y = 4


substitute the value of y into one of the equations to find x


x - 2(4) = 2


x = 10
