P1=2x+2y=30

after modify them

P2=2*3x+2*4y=102

     6x+8y=102

      2x+2y=30      / * (-3)

      -6x-6y= -90

       6x+8y=102

we must add the 2 expressions

         / 8y-6y=102-90

            2y=12

           y=12:2

          y=6

       2*x+2*y=30

       2x+2*6=30

       2x+12=30

      2x=30-12

     2x=18

      x=18:2

      x=9

A pair of equations is shown below:
Archy [21]

Slope Intercept Form - y = mx + b

First you need the slope or m which in the first equation is 6 and in the second is 5

Next the y-intercept or b which in the first equation is -4 and in the second is -3

Here is an image of both equation plotted on a graph where the first equation is purple and the second is green

Hope this helps, if you need anything else i will edit it in :)

edit: The to lines intercept at the point (1,2)

Sorry, i wasn't completely sure what you needed i haven't done this in a while. If you still need more, I'll try to help.
