Answer:
(4,10) is the solution
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + y = 18
x – y = –6
Using elimination
2x + y = 18
x – y = –6
----------------------
3x = 12
Dividing each side by 3
3x/3 = 12/3
x =4
Now we can find y
2x+y = 18
2(4) +y =18
8+y = 18
Subtracting 8 from each side
8-8+y = 18-8
y=10
(4,10) is the solution
