x + 2y = 10
x + y = 6
Both x's in the equation are equal. We want the x of the last equation to be negative so we can eliminate.
x + 2y = 10
-x - y = -6
Subtract.
y = 4
Now that we figured out y, we have to figure out x. Substitute y into one on the equations.
x + 4 = 6
x = 2
Now we figured out x. The answer is (2,4). I hope this helps! Let me know if I got anything wrong or if you need any more help with this problem.
