Example: 2x+2y=8 and 3y+2x=6 Okay so u first want to put on of the equations into a y= form. So let's use 3y+2x=6. Subtract 2x from both sides. 3y=6-2x divide by 3. Y= 6-2/3x or y= -2/3x + 6. Now just plug this new equation in for Y since "y=" into the other equation. 2x + 2(-2/3x + 6) = 8. Then you would distribute the 2 into the parenthesis and simplify to solve for x. After you solve for x, plug x into one of the original equations to find y.
