Solve each system by elimination 4x - 2y = 8

-6x + 2y = - 2

x = - 3, y = - 10

or as an ordered pair (-3, - 10).

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 2y = 8

-6x + 2y = - 2 Adding these will eliminate y:

-2x + 0 = 6

x = - 3 Now substitute for x in the first equation:

4 (-3) - 2y = 8

-2y = 8 + 12

y = 20/-2 = - 10.

Answer: x = - 3; y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 2y = 8

-6x + 2y = - 2

-2x = 6

x = 6

-2

x = - 3

4x - 2y = 8

4 (-3) - 2y = 8

12-2y = 8

-2y = - 12 + 8

y = - 10

-2

y = 5
