Multiply the first equation by 2 and add the equations.
Solve for x and then substitute the value of x in any equation to get the value of y.
Good Luck

Elimination By addition Method
4x + 2y = 5- - - - -Equation 1
3x - 4y = 1- - - - - Equation 2
- - - - - - - - -
Multiply equation 1 by 2
4x + 2y = 5
2(4x) + 2(2y) = 2(5)
8x + 4y = 10
Combine this equation with equation 2
- - - - - - - - - -
Elimination of y
8x + 4y = 10
3x - 4y = 1
- - - - - - - - - -
11x = 11
Divide both sides of the equation by 11
11x / 11 = 11 / 11
x = 11/11
x = 1
Substitute the x value into equation 1
- - - - - - - - -
4x + 2y = 5
4(1) + 2y = 5
4 + 2y = 5
Transpose 4
4 + 2y - 4 = 5 - 4
2y = 1
Divide both sides of the equation by 2
2y / 2 = 1 / 2
y = 1/2
Substitute the y value into equation 1
- - - - - - - - - -
Check for equation 1
4x + 2y = 5
4(1) + 2(1/2) = 5
4 + 2/2 = 5
4 + 1 = 5
5 = 5
- - - - - - - - -
Check for equation 2
3x - 4y = 1
3(1) - 4(1/2) = 1
3 - 4/2 = 1
3 - 2 = 1
1 = 1
- - - - - - - - -
Both equations balance
The solution set (1, 1/2)

4x+2y=5
3x-4y=1
you can solve it by elimination:
(4x+2y=5) 2 --- so that you can cancel something
3x-4y=1
8x +4y = 10,..... ------- cancel 4y and -4 because
+ 3x - 4y = 1 ,.....;....-------4y -4y = 0
11x = 11
x = 1
solve for y
3x-4y = 1
3(1)-4y =1
3 - 4y = 1
-4y = 1 - 3
-4y =-2
y = 1/2
therefore the value pf x is 1 and the value of y is 1/2

4x+2y=5
3x-4y=1
multiply the first quation by 2
(4x+2y=5)*2
8x+4y=10
now add this equation 1 with equation 2
8x+4y=10
3x-4y=1
--------------------
11x+0y=11
11x=11
x=11/11
x=1
now substutite this value of x in equation 1
4x+2y=5
4*1+2y=5
4+2y=5
2y=5-4
2y=1
y=1/2

y = 1/2
Yep! Do your OWN homework, kid! This was easy enough for someone as dumb as I to type it out.

4x+2y=5.......(a)
3x-4y=1........(b)
by Eliminating (a) and (b)...
4x+2y=5 *2
3x-4y=1 *1
-----------------+
8x+4y=10
3x-4y=1
-----------------+
11x=11
x=1
then u'll get y=-1/2
