Answer:

To eliminate y- terms

Multiply equ(1) by 3 and equ(2) by -4

To eliminate y- terms

Multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by -5

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 4y = 28 (1)

3x - 3y = 30 (2)

To eliminate y- terms

Multiply equ(1) by 3 and equ(2) by -4

15x-12y=84

-12x+12y= -120

Add equ (3) and (4)

3x=84-120

3x=-36

x=-36/3

= -12

x=-12

To eliminate x- terms

5x-4y=28

3x-3y=30

Multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by -5

15x-12y=84

-15x+15y=-150

Add the new equation

3y= -66

y= -22
