Solve the system using elimination: 4x + y = 6 and 6x + y = 2

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-06-07] [Hit: ]

Report Abuse -Multiply. 2nd equation by -1 so-6x + -y=-2.then add both equations.-2x=4. X=-2. Plug in -2 and you get 14-X =-2 ,......

-4x - y = - 6
6x + y = 2_____ADD

2x = - 4
x = - 2

- 8 + y = 6
y = 14

x = - 2 , y = 14

Pleased to help---thank you.
