Step-by-step explanation:
We have to get one positive 7y so,
4x-7y=5
9x-7y=-15
multiply anyone of the equation by -1. I choose the first one so,
4x+7y=-5
9x-7y=-15
we can now cancel the y's so the equation will be left with
-4x=-5
9x=-15
add the equations
5x=-20
divide by 5 n u get
x=-4
now plug in the x value in any one of the
equations
I choose the first one so,
4(-4)-7y=5
-16-7y=5
add 16 to both sides
-7y=21
divide by -7
y=-3.
finally check.

Using proportions, it is found that Diego traveled 15 miles in the cross-town cab ride.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
In this problem, for the miles traveled, Diego paid 18.50 - 2.25 = $16.25. Considering the fee of $1.25 per mile, the distance he traveled is given by:
d = 16.25/1.25 = 15.
