Answer:
By 2.
Explanation:
You need to eliminated the x-terms, so the first step is to focus only in those terms.
So yo have 4x and -2x, since you are thinking in eliminate then you have this equation>
![4-2*K=0](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/uk8vpn9ozced37deryr2ksh8dxnd8pxixz.png)
Note that we dont put the x variable, since we are studying its coefficients in the equations system.
Solving for K, Gives us that K=2
So.
Multiplying the second equation by 2 results in
![-4x+6y=8](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/tvewo2bobxjle4x124xcl0hsvli7t0vwl4.png)
When you put them together, it gives you the following
![4x-9y -4x+6y- 7+8](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/wfu607xwab22tchhjlrr8j737np79u8xto.png)
and the final equation is
![-3y=15\\](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/gohigl3n3ub2to4zmqc2kxt317nxvegllm.png)
giving you the answer for y, that is
![y=-5](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/college/6nm89lciz2oa9qudhoky7me1cc2muuetyu.png)
