Question

3x + 4y = 12 x + 2y = 10

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-8 and y=9

Step-by-step explanation:

rewrite the equations to x+2y=10,3x+4y=12

sub 2y from both sides x+2y-2y=10-2y

substitue x=10-2y in 3x +4y=12

3(-2y+10)+4y=12

distribute

add-30 to both sides

divide both sides by -2

y=9

sustitute 9 for y in -2y+10=x

x=-8
