If we subtract the 2 equations we eliminate x:-
x - x - 2y - (-y) = -26--2
-y = -24
y = 24
Plug this into the first equation:-
x - 2(24) = -26
x = -26 + 48 = 22
Answer is x = 22 and y = 24

C=chicken
p=pigs
c+p=13~p=13-c (plug in)
2c+4p=40
2c+4(13-c)=40
2c+52-4c=40
-2c=-12
c=6
6+p=13
p=7
6 chickens
7 pigs
