Answer:

X=4-2y/6

Y=4-6x/2

Explanation:

For X:

1) -2y

Once you subtract 2y you are left with 6x=4-2y

2) Divide by 6 on both sides to get x alone

That would give you your answer of X=4-2y/6

For Y:

1) -6x

After subtracting 6x you would have 2y=4+6x

2) Like the steps above, you divide by 2 on both sides and that would give you your answer of Y=4-6x/2
