Answer:
x=-2,y=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
By dividing to lowest terms
5x – 5y = 10= x-y=2.......(1)
6x – 4y = 4=3x-2y=2........(2)
By elimination method
Multiply equation (1) by 3 so as to correspond with equation (2)
3(x-y)=3(2)
3x-3y=6..........(3)
Multiply equation (2) by 1 so as to correspond with equation (1)
1(3x-2y)=1(2)
3x-2y=2..........(4)
Then equation (3)-equation (4)
(3x-3y=6)
-
(3x-2y=2)
__________
-y=4
y=-4
Substitute y=-4 into equation(1)
x-(-4)=2
x+4=2
x=-2
Therefore x=-2,y=-4
