Question

​
Estimate the solution to the system of equations.
4x−2y=8

2x+y=2
​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3/2

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Elimination

4x - 2y = 8 | ×1 |

2x + y = 2 | ×2 |

4x - 2y = 8

4x + 2y = 4

__________--

-4y = 4

y = 4/-4

y = -1

Subsitution

2x + y = 2

2x + (-1) = 2

2x = 2 + 1

x = 3/2
