Solve the second equation for 2y.
.. 2y = 9 -x
Substitute that into the first equation.
.. 3x -(9 -x) = 11
.. 4x -9 = 11
.. 4x = 20
.. x = 5
Using our expression for 2y above,
.. 2y = 9 - 5
.. y = 4/2 = 2

The solution is (x, y) = (5, 2).

142. 

You can get this by seeing what number you have to multiply 7 by to get as close to 1000 as you can. 7*142 = 994. Thus each one of the multiplications up to that point will give you a positive integer than can be divided by 7. <span />
