Solve this using the elimination process.
They're already lined up so just solve!
2x + 2x = 4x
2y + (-y) = 3y
9 + 3 = 12
4x + (-1y) = 12
Now solve.
4x + - 1 x y = 12
4x - y = 12
4x = 12 + y
x = 12 + y / 4
First, when a problem is lined up with the same vales/terms, you can use the elimination process while doing math.
Then, make your equation by adding and subtracting the same terms.
Therefore, you finally get your answer.
Keep in mind not all answers will be a full number.

(2.5, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x + 2y = 9 → (1)
2x - y = 3 → (2)
Rearrange (2) expressing y in terms of x
y = 2x - 3 → (3)
Substitute y = 2x - 3 into (1)
2x + 2 (2x - 3) = 9 ← distribute left side and simplify
2x + 4x - 6 = 9
6x - 6 = 9 (add 6 to both sides)
6x = 15 (divide both sides by 6)
x = 2.5
Substitute x = 2.5 into (3) for corresponding value of y
y = 2 (2.5) - 3 = 5 - 3 = 2
Solution is (2.5, 2)
