use the elimination method to solve the system of equations choose the correct ordered pair 6x + 4y = 32 - 6x + 4y = 8

look at the coefients

coffients of x are - 6 and 6, so if we add them together, we can get 0x and cancel them

add the equations

6x+4y=32

-6x+4y=8 +

0x+8y=40

8y=40

divie by 8 both sides

y=5

subsitute back

6x+4y=32

6x+4 (5) = 32

6x+20=32

6x=12

x=2

the ordered pair in (x, y) form is (2,5)
