Answer:

x = -6, y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-7y = 2

3x + y = -20

We need to cancel out either x or y to solve the equation. I'll cancel out x first

3(2x-7y = 2)

-2(3x+y=-20)

___________

6x-21y = 6

-6x -2y = 40

____________

-23y = 46

y = -2

Plug the value for y in one of the 2 equations to solve for x

2x -7(-2) = 2

2x+14=2

2x = -12

x=-6
