// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] y = -2x + 6
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [2]
[2] 2x - (-2x+6) = 2 [2] 4x = 8
// Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] 4x = 8 [2] x = 2
// By now we know this much :
x = 2 y = -2x+6
// Use the x value to solve for y
y = -2(2)+6 = 2
Solution :
{x,y} = {2,2}
[1] y = -2x + 6
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [2]
[2] 2x - (-2x+6) = 2 [2] 4x = 8
// Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] 4x = 8 [2] x = 2
// By now we know this much :
x = 2 y = -2x+6
// Use the x value to solve for y
y = -2(2)+6 = 2
Solution :
{x,y} = {2,2}
