Answer:
x = 6, y = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
First we take the equations side by side and put them like this:
6x + 2y = 16
+ 2x - 2y = 32
8x = 48
Then solve for x.
x = 6
Then insert x back into either equation
2(5) - 2y = 32
10 - 2y = 32
solve for y,
y = -10
Isolate x.
24x = 48 - 2y
Divide by 24.
x = 2 - y/12
