Example: 2x+2y=8 and 3y+2x=6
Okay so u first want to put on of the equations into a y= form. So let's use 3y+2x=6. Subtract 2x from both sides. 3y=6-2x divide by 3. Y= 6-2/3x or y= -2/3x + 6. Now just plug this new equation in for Y since "y=" into the other equation.
2x + 2(-2/3x + 6) = 8.
Then you would distribute the 2 into the parenthesis and simplify to solve for x.
After you solve for x, plug x into one of the original equations to find y.
Step-by-step explanation:

5 + n times of a number
Write a system of equations:
x + y = 125
20x + 15y = 2100
Solving:
x = 125 - y
20(125 - y) + 15y = 2100
2500 - 20y + 15y = 2100
2500 - 5y = 2100
-5y = 2100 - 2500
-5y = -400
y=80
x + 80 = 125
x = 125 - 80
x = 45
The first charges 45$ per hour and the second charges 80$ per hour
