    Solution: (2,8)

    Using the elimination method set up the system of equations like:

    y = x + 6

    y = 3x + 2

    Eliminate the x-variable by multiplying the top equation by - 3

    -3y = - 3x - 18

    y = 3x + 2

    Combine terms:

    -2y = - 16

    -y = - 8

    y = 8

    Plug in 8 to one of the first equations for y

    8 = 3x + 2

    6 = 3x

    x = 2

    Solution: (2,8)
