Answer:
(3, 0 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x + 2y = 6 → (1)
4x - 6y = 12 → (2)
Multiplying (1) by - 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the x- term
- 4x - 4y = - 12 → (3)
Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate x
0 - 10y = 0
- 10y = 0 ⇒ y = 0
Substitute y = 0 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (1)
2x + 2(0) = 6
2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 3
solution is (3, 0 )
