Answer:

x = 4

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\left \{ {{3x+4y=36} \atop {\frac{1}{2}x+4y=8 }} \right.[/tex] rewrite the equations and multiply bottom equations by -4

[tex]\left \{ {{3x+4y=36} \atop {-2x-4y=-32}} \right.[/tex] add both equations together

x = 4

then, input x=4 into equation 3x+4y=36:

3(4)+4y=36 (simplify)

12+4y=36 (subtract 12 from both sides)

4y=24 (divide both sides by 4)

y=6
