multiply the bottom equation by 2
then add the equations, the y's will cancel (it's why I choose 2). Solve that for x. Plug that value back into the first equation, solve for y.

[QUOTE=GrafEmpire,Apr 7 2014 02:34pm]Algebraic ally determine
8x-2y-10=0
(1/2)x+y=6

x+2y = 12
2y = 12 - x
y = (12 - x) / 2

8x - 2((12 - x)/2) = 10
solve or x

filll in for y

(1/2)x+y=6

2*.5x+y=6
x+y=6
x=6-y

8x-2y-10=0
8(6-y)=10
divide both sides by 8
6-y=10/8
-y=(10/8)-6
y=-4.75
y=9/2

8x-2y-10=0
8x=2y+10
4x=y+5
4x-5=y

.5x+4x-5=6
4.5x-5=6
4.5x=11
x=11/4.5

(1/2)*(11/4.5)+y=6
(11/9)+y=6
y=34/9

Something doesnt seem right in mine...but I am pretty sure the one ripper and hollydell posted is incorrect.
