Question

2x+3y=82x+6y=12 help fast please

Answer 1

We are given the following system of equations

`\begin{gathered} 2x+3y=8\quad eq.1 \\ 2x+6y=12\quad eq.2 \end{gathered}`

Let us solve the system of equations.

Subtract the eq.1 from eq.2

So, the x variable is canceled and we are left with

`\begin{gathered} 3y=4 \\ y=(4)/(3) \end{gathered}`

Substitute the value of y into any of the two equations
