Answer:

The ordered pair that is a solution is (2, 10)

Explanation:

2x + 6 = 4x + 2 Subtract 2x from both sides

2x - 2x + 6 = 4x - 2x + 2

6 = 2x + 2 Subtract 2 from both sides

6 - 2 = 2x + 2 -2

4 = 2x Divide both sides by 2

2 = x

Substitute 2 for x in either of the two original equations.

y = 2x + 6

y = 2(2) + 6

y = 4 + 6

y = 10

The ordered pair that is a solution is (2, 10)
