Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 2y = 3 ( x2 for everything in the equation)
x - 4y = -1
4x+ 4y = 6
x - 4y = -1
Add the 1st line to the 2nd line to get rid of the y:
5x = 5
x - 4y = -1 ( you can pick any line from this system to be the second equation in this step, you can put 2x + 2y = 3 or 4x+ 4y = 6, anything above this step, but to make it simple chose the one you think is the easiest)
Solve for x, then plug the x value into the 2nd equation
x = 1
1 - 4y = -1
x = 1
-4y = -2 =) y = 1/2
x = 1
y= 1/2
