Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Remove the parentheses and turn the 4-2x and make it into 4+2x candle the equal term -4 and should be left with x+6=2+2x then move the variable to the left and change the sign so it would be x-2x=2-6 and collect like terms so it would be -x=2-6 and then calculate that and get -x= -4
(sorry its alot)
(2x + 3y = 12) x (-2)
(4x - 3y = 6) x 1
-4x - 6y = -24
4x - 3y = 6
You can cancel out the x values by adding the two equations together.
(-4x + 4x) + (-6y - 3y) = (-24 + 6)
-9y = -18
y = 2
Solve for x now...
4x - 3(2) = 6
4x - 6 = 6
4x = 12
x = 3
Check... (x = 3, y = 2)
2(3) + 3(2) = 12
6 + 6 = 12
12 = 12 <- this works!
4(3) - 3(2) = 6
12 - 6 = 6
6 = 6 <- this works!
10 + 15x + x + 10
= 16x + 20
