Question

Please help with this Algebra 1 math problem:

Answer 1

3x - y = 2

x + y = 6


This system is already in a nice form to do the elimination method on the y variable.

We simply add vertically.


4x = 8.


x = 2. The x-coordinate of the solution is 2.


We can plug the value in to find y if needed.

2 + y = 6.

y = 4.

Answer 2
