Solving:


\left \{ {{4x-6y=10\:(I)} \atop {3x+6y=4\:(II)}} \right.


\left \{ {{4x-\diagup\!\!\!\!\!6y=10} \atop {3x+\diagup\!\!\!\!\!6y=4}} \right.


\left \{ {{4x=10} \atop {3x=4}} \right.
----------------------

7x = 14

x = (14)/(7)

\boxed{\boxed{x = 2}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

Now replace the found value of "x" in equation (II) to find the value of "y"


3x+6y=4\:(II)

3*(2) + 6y = 4

6 + 6y = 4

6y = 4 - 6

6y = - 2

y = (-2)/(6) (/2)/(/2) \to \boxed{\boxed{y = (-1)/(3)}} \end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

Answer:
x = 2
y = - 1/3
