So we have the equations:
y - 4x = 2 --- equation 1
5y - 2x = 1 --- equation 2
(equation 2) * 2
10y - 4x = 2 --- equation 3
(equation 2) - (equation 3)
-9y = 0 so y= 0 and thus x = -1/2
Hope that helps!
Answer:
The answer is 13 because you are a trying to put the letters alone and when you do that you eventually get 13
