Answer:
(-4,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to find a common multiple to use to add and find the system of equations. We need to eliminate one of the variables in order to solve.
Since 5 * 3 = 15, and 3 * -5 = 15, -15x and 15x will cancel each other out. Therefore x will be eliminated.
Before:
5x + 2y = -16
3x + 7y = 2 
After:
15x + 6y = -48   <----------Now we solve for y
-15x + -35y = -10
+----------------------
-29y = -58
-29      -29
y = 2
Now what we do is we choose and equation and solve for x, since it is still unknown. Any equation is fine but I will choose the second one since it has easy numbers.
3x + 7y = 2
3x + 7(2) = 2
3x + 14 = 2
    -14     -14
----------------------
3x = -12
3        3
x = -4
Therefore our final answer is (-4,2)
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
 
        
             
        
        
        
Well 24=4*6, and 35=7*5 not 6, so 4/7 doesn't = 24/35, so no
