We need to form a system of equations:
3x + 2y = 2
2x + 3y = 4
Now, we can multiply the first equation by 2, and the second equation by 3, to even out the coefficients by the variables (to make them the same thing).
6x + 4y = 4
6x + 9y = 12
Next, we can subtract the second equation from the first. We get:
0x - 5y = -8
Then this becomes:
-5y = -8
÷-1 ÷-1
5y = 8
÷5 ÷5
y = 1.6
Substitute 1.6 for y in one of the equations:
2x + 3(1.6) = 4
2x + 4.6 = 4
2x = -0.6
÷2 ÷2
x = -0.3
