6=4x+2y

-19=4x-3y

using elimination process

The answer is x = - 1

y = 5

Answer: x = - 1, y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

6=4x+2y ... eq 1

-19=4x-3y ... eq 2

Subtracting eq 2 from eq 1

6=4x+2y

-

-19=4x-3y

This gives;

25=5y

divide both sides by 5

y=5

Substituting the value of y in eq 1

6=4x + 2 (5)

6=4x + 10

Subtract 10 from both sides

6-10=4x+10-10

-4=4x+0

-4=4x

Divide both sides by 4

-1=x

Therefore, x = - 1

Verify the values of x and y in either of the equations, Let's use equation 1

6 = 4 (-1) + 2 (5)

6 = - 4 + 10

Hence, X = - 1 and y = 5
