Answer:

(6, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

9x - 2y = 46 → (1)

x + 2y = 14 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the y- term

10x + 0 = 60

10x = 60 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = 6

Substitute x = 6 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (2)

6 + 2y = 14 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

2y = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 4

solution is (6, 4 )
