Answer:

x=-1, y=

Explanation:

We have two equations with two unknowns, so we can solve for x and y.

Solve one equation for y: From the first equation, y = 2x + 8.
Substitute this expression for y in the second equation: 2x + 8 = 4x + 10.
Solve for x: Simplify the equation: -2x = 2. Divide both sides by -2: x = -1.
Substitute the value of x back into either equation: Substitute -1 for x in either equation to find y. Using the first equation, y = 2(-1) + 8 = 6.
Therefore, x = -1 and y = 6.
