2x+y=9 (*2) __ 4x+2y=18 name it 1.  8x-2y=6 name it 2. Now add both equations, 1 & 2. 4x+2y+8x+-2y=18+6. 2y will be cancelled out. You'll be left with 12x=24, x=2. Then replace the value of x which is 2 in either equation 1 or 2. I'll go with 1 equation 4(2)+2y=18  2y=18-8=10 y=5. Using the equation 2 should provide the same result of y.

Step-by-step explanation:

See a solution process below:

Explanation:

First, subtract

Now, divide each segment by  

−

to solve for  

x

while keeping the system balanced. However, because we are multiplying or dividing inequalities by a negative number we must reverse the inequality operators:
