\begin{cases}&3x + y = 6 \\&2x - 4y = 10\end{cases}

Multiply 4 to the first equation:
\begin{cases}&12x + 4y = 24 \\&2x - 4y = 10\end{cases}

ADD Equation 1 to Equation 2 and find x:
\begin{aligned}&14x =34 \\&x= 34/14 \\& x = 17/7\end{aligned}

Substitute x = 17/7 and find y:
\begin{aligned}&3x + y = 6 \\&3 (17/7) + y = 6 \\& 51/7 + y = 6 \\&y = -9/7\end{aligned}

Answer: x = 17/7, y  = -9/7
