The correct Answer is:
To solve the system of linear equations given by: 1. \( x - 2y + 2 = 0 \) 2. \( 2x + y - 6 = 0 \) we will use the elimination method. Here are the steps to find the values of \( x \) and \( y \): ### Step 1: Rewrite the equations First, we can rewrite the equations in a more standard form: 1. \( x - 2y = -2 \) (Equation 1) 2. \( 2x + y = 6 \) (Equation 2) ### Step 2: Make the coefficients of \( x \) equal To eliminate \( x \), we can multiply Equation 1 by 2 so that the coefficients of \( x \) in both equations will be the same: \[ 2(x - 2y) = 2(-2) \] This gives us: \[ 2x - 4y = -4 \quad \text{(Equation 3)} \] Now we have: 1. \( 2x - 4y = -4 \) (Equation 3) 2. \( 2x + y = 6 \) (Equation 2) ### Step 3: Subtract the equations Next, we will subtract Equation 2 from Equation 3 to eliminate \( x \): \[ (2x - 4y) - (2x + y) = -4 - 6 \] This simplifies to: \[ -4y - y = -10 \] Combining like terms gives us: \[ -5y = -10 \] ### Step 4: Solve for \( y \) Now, we can solve for \( y \): \[ y = \frac{-10}{-5} = 2 \] ### Step 5: Substitute \( y \) back to find \( x \) Now that we have \( y = 2 \), we can substitute this value back into either of the original equations to find \( x \). We will use Equation 1: \[ x - 2(2) + 2 = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ x - 4 + 2 = 0 \] \[ x - 2 = 0 \] Thus, we find: \[ x = 2 \] ### Final Solution The solution to the system of equations is: \[ x = 2, \quad y = 2 \]
