Xelga [282]3 years ago

The solution is: x=2, y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are:

6x+2y=8         Eqn 1

12x+y=22       Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 2

2(6x+2y)=2(8)\\12x+4y=16      Eqn 3

Subtracting Equation 2 from eqn 3

12x+4y-(12x+y)=16-22\\12x+4y-12x-y=-6\\3y=-6\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 3\\\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{-6}{3}\\y=-2

Putting y=-2 in eqn 2

12x-2=22\\Adding\ 2\ on\ both\ sides\\12x-2+2=22+2\\12x=24\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 12\\\frac{12x}{12} = \frac{24}{2}\\x=2

The solution is: x=2, y=-2
