Question

Solve the system of equations using any method. 6x + 4y = −8 4x − 2y = 2

Answer 1

Hi there!
Let's us Substitution, as it appears to be the easiest one. We can solve the second equation for y. 
$4x - 2y = 2$
$-2y=-4x+2$
$y=2x-1$
Now that we have found the expression for y, we can substitute it back into the first equation. 
$6x + 4y = -8$
$6x+4(2x-1)=-8$
Next, just solve for x. 
$6x+4(2x-1)=-8$
$6x+8x-4=-8$
$14x-4=-8$
$14x=-4$
$x =-\frac{2}{7}$
We have found the x-value of the system of equation, now we have to find the y-value. To do this, we can substitute the derived x-value into any equation, I'll be doing it in the first equation. When we substitute -2/7 into the first equation and solve for y, we get -11/7. Therefore, the solutions to the system of equations are -2/7 and -11/7. Hope my answer has come of assistance you and have a phenomenal day!
