The equations are
\

Rewrite the second equation
\
Apply subtraction property of equality: Subtract 5y from each side.
\
Apply commutative property of addition: a + b = b + a.
\
(Apply additive inverse property:
)
(Apply additive identity property:
)
Since the coefficients of the x-terms, +1 and -1, are additive inverses,
\you can eliminate these terms by adding the equations. .
\add the equations to eliminate variable x.
\
(Write the equations in column form and add)
Apply division property of equality: Divide each side by negative 6.
\
(Cancel common terms)
(Divide:
)
Now Substitute
for y in either equation to find the value of x.
(Equation 1)
Apply addition property of equality: Add 4 to each side.
\
(Apply additive inverse property:
)
(Apply additive identity property:
)
(Add:
)
Apply multiplication property of equality: Multiply each side by negative one.
\
(Product of two same signs is positive)
(Product of two diffirent signs is negative)
The solution is
