Y= -6 --> plug this -6 into the y of the 2nd equation
y= 4x+12 --> -6 = 4x+12 --> 4x = -18
x = -18/4 = -9/2 --> now this is the x solution coordinate, and we know that y must equal -6 from the 1st equation, so our solution point is:
(-9/2, -6)
Hope that helped!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to do this we need to isolate y by performing the inverse operations on the other values like so...

a) 10x + 5y = 20 ... subtract 10x on both sides

5y = 20 - 10x ... divide both sides by 5

y = 4 - 2x ... we can move the 2x to the right to make it into y = mx + b

y = -2x + 4

b) 3x - 2y = 10 + 4x ... subtract 3x on both sides

-2y = 10 + x ... divide both sides by -2
