x + 6y = 2 4x - 3y = 10 Pick the first step to solving this system of equations using the addition method.
Add the equation first to get: 5x + 3y = 12 and then solve for x.
Add -6y to both sides of the equation to isolate the x variable in the top equation.
Multiply the top equation by 4 thus eliminating the x variable when the equations are added together.
Multiply the bottom equation by 2 thus eliminating the y variable when the equations are added together.
