First, change one of the equations to an y=x form I'll use the top one for example. 3x-2y=14 -2y=14-3x y=-7+(3/2)x Not that you can show what y is in terms of x, plug in the x side of the equation into the other equation, for y. x+2(-7+(3/2)x)=10 Now, you can solve for x x-14+3x=10 4x-14=10 4x=24 x=6 Using this value of x, we can now solve for y using one of the original equations. (6)+2y=10 2y=4 y=2
