Answer:
(0, 3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
4x + 2y = 6 → (1)
16x - 4y = - 12 → (2)
Multiplying (1) by 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the x- term
8x + 4y = 12 → (3)
Add (2) and (3) term by term
(8x + 16x) + (4y - 4y) = (12 - 12), that is
24x = 0 ⇒ x = 0
Substitute x = 0 into (1) or (2) and solve for y
Substituting in (1)
4(0) + 2y = 6
0 + 2y = 6
2y = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = 3
Solution is (0, 3 )
