Answer:

No solution.

Explanation:

Isolate the term of x and y from one side of the equation.

3x+y=8 and 6x+2y=10

3x+y=8

x=8-y/3

Solve.

Rewrite the problem down.

6*8-y/3+2y=10

Then, solve.

16=10

Therefore, the final answer is no solution.

I hope this helps you! Let me know if my answer is wrong or not.
