Answer:

The solution, as an ordered pair, is (4, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = 12

6x - 2y = 20 Adding the 2 equations will eliminate y:

8x + 2y + (-2y) = 32

8x = 32

x = 4.

Substitute x = 4 in the first equation:

2(4) + 2y = 12

2y = 12 - 8

2y = 4

y = 2.

Solve for x. 2=4x-6

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the equation as 4x - 6 = 2

Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation:

Add 6 to both sides of the equation.

4x = 2 + 6

Add 2 and 6.

4x = 8

Divide each term by 4 and simplify.

Divide each term in 4x = 8 by 4.

$\frac{4x}{4} =\frac{8}{4}$

Reduce the expression by cancelling the common factors.

$x=\frac{8}{4}$

Divide 8 by 4.

x = 2
