Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic equation can be factorised if and only if there are rational roots.
For any quadratic equation the discriminant decides about the nature of roots.
Thus only if the discriminant is a perfect square we can have rational roots and in this case only factorization is possible.
In the given equation
Since 1 is a perfect square we can factor and solve

Answer:
(x, y) = (-1, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations are "consistent" and "not dependent." This will be the case whenever the ratios of x- and y-coefficients are different.

We can solve this by "elimination" by multiplying the first equation by -4 and adding the result of the second equation being multiplied by 7.
-4(2x -7y) +7(7x -4y) = -4(19) +7(5)
-8x +28y +49x -28y = -76 +35 . . . . eliminate parentheses
41x = -41 . . . . . simplify
x = -1 . . . . . . . divide by 41
Using the second equation, we find y to be ...
(7x -5)/4 = y = (7(-1) -5)/4 = -12/4 = -3
So, the solution is (x, y) = (-1, -3).
