2x+y=6 3x+y=2
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I assume you want to solve this system
2x+y=6
3x+y=2
Let's just subtract the second equation from the first We have
-x = 4 So
x = -4
And putting this value back into the second equation, we find that
3(-4) + y = 2
-12 + y = 2 Add 12 to both sides
y = 14
So x = -4 and y = 14
You should check that these are correct by substituting them back into the first equation.
