Question

Solve each system of equations 3x + 2y = 26 3x - 2y = 10 Ordered pair

Answer 1

Let's solve the following system of equations

$\begin{gathered} 3x+2y=26 \\ 3x-2y=10 \end{gathered}$

Eq 1 + Eq 2

$3x+2y+3x-2y=26+10$$6x=36$$x=6$

Now for y

$y=\frac{26-3x}{2}$$y=\frac{26-3\cdot6}{2}$$y=\frac{8}{2}$$y=4$
