6y = x + 18
2y = x + 6         subtract :-

4y = 12
y = 3

substitute y=3 into second equation:-
6 = x + 6
so x =  0

solution is x=0.y=3

I'm not sure what techniques you've been looking at to solve a system like this, but substitution would be a good one to use.  Solve one of the equations for one of the variables (pick an easy one).  How about using the first equation and solving for x:
6y = x + 18
x = 6y - 18
Now, plug in the expression for x into the other equation:
2y - (6y - 18) = 6
Solve that for y, then use the answer to find x.

Janet is buying a $28 necklace. The store reduces the price by 20% and then applies a $2 off coupon. How much will Janet pay for
Leokris [45]
Okay well the starting is 28 dollars, right. But since there is a 20 percent discount, you have to turn 20% to a decimal. That means moving the decimal sign twice to the left to make it .20. From the it would be .20*28, that should equal 5.6. Now, that 5.6 is the amount you have to take away, it is the price of the sale. From then, you subtract which is 28-5.6 which should be 22.4. From that 22.4 you now take away two dollars and then it should be 22.4-2 which should be 20.4. Now that is your answer, 20.4.

ss7ja [257]
Let x be the number of rolls of wallpaper that you can buy to decorate your kitchen. Since each roll costs $10, the total cost for x rolls is 10x. This value should be not be more than $50. The inequality that is best described is  
                                              10x ≤ 50
Solving for x gives an answer of x ≤ 5.
