What is the solution to the system of equations defined by (1) x+2y = 4 and (2) y+2x = 6?
We rearrange equation (1) to obtain an expression in terms of x. We then substitute this expression in place of x in equation (2), rearranging to find the numerical value of y. This value of y can then be substituted into equation (1). x = 8/3. y = 2/3.
