Solve simultaneously.
4x - y = 8
6x + y = 2
Multiply top equation by 6, and bottom equation by 4, to eliminate x, so that we can find y.
~
24x - 6y = 48
24x - 4y = 8
Subtract top from bottom to form one equation.
~
-2y = 40
Therefore y is 20.
Put y back in to an equation, such as 4x - y = 8.
~
4x - 20 = 8
4x = 28
x = 7
First things first, write out your equation without the substitution.
2x+ 2y= 10
Now, put in the substitution.
2x+ 2• 2= 10
Combine like terms.
2x+ 4= 10
Now that your equation it simplified, you need to reverse the problem and put everything on the other side.
2x+ 4= 10
- 4 - 4
2x = 6
2x=6

2 2
X= 3
So the final answer is x=3
