10	x	+	2	y	=	46	.............1	
								
3	x		-3	y	=	21	.............2	
Eliminate	y							
multiply (1)by		3						
Multiply (2) by		2						
30	x		6	y	=	138		
6	x		-6	y	=	42		
Add the two equations								
36	x				=	180		
/	36							
x	=	5						
plug value of			x	in (1)				
10	x	+	2	y	=	46		
50		+	2	y	=	46		
			2	y	=	46		-50
			2	y	=	-4		
				y	=	-2		
x=	5,		y=	-2
