Answer:
x=6/5
y= 8/5
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a system of equations, and you can solve it in different methods.
The method I chose was substitution
If you rearrange the 1st equation, you find that y=3x-2
You can substitute that into the second equation
This is how it will look like:
2x+3x-2=4
Now you can simplify the equation to 5x-2=4
Bring the 2 to the other side
Now the equation looks like this:
5x=6 ===> x=6/5
Now substitute this value in the first equation.
This is how it will look like:
3(6/5)-y=2
Now you can simplify the equation to 18/5-y=2
Bring the 2 to the other side and do the same for y
The equation will look like this:
18/5-2=y ===> y=18/5-2
Now subtract
You will get:
y= 8/5
