ANSWER

y = -7

EXPLANATION

To solve using the substitution method we have to clear x from one of the equations as a function of y. For example, for equation 2:

[tex]x=13+y[/tex]

Then replace x in the first equation by this expression:

[tex]4(13+y)+2y=10[/tex]

And solve for y:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 4\cdot13+4y+2y=10 \\ 52+6y=10 \\ 6y=10-52 \\ 6y=-42 \\ y=\frac{-42}{6} \\ y=-7 \end{gathered}[/tex]
