Question

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP!

Answer 1

Answer:

x =- 3 and y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

2X-2Y=-8

X=2y + 11

We need to isolate both X and Y in both equations

so

2x-2y=-8

(add 2y to both sides)

2x=-8+ 2y

(divide both sides by 2)

x=-4+y and x=2y+11

because both of these equations are the same we can put them together

4+y=2y+11

(subtract y)

4=y+11

(subtract 11)

-7=y

so y = -7

then to find x you just need to plug in y to one of the equations

x=2(-7) + 11

x= -14 +11

x = -3

Answer 2

Answer:

x = - 19, y = - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x - 2y = - 8 → (1)

x = 2y + 11 → (2)

Substitute x = 2y + 11 into (1)

2(2y + 11) - 2y = - 8 ← distribute and simplify left side

4y + 22 - 2y = - 8

2y + 22 = - 8 ( subtract 22 from both sides )

2y = - 30 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = - 15

Substitute y = - 15 into (2) for corresponding value of x

x = 2(- 15) + 11 = - 30 + 11 = - 19

Solution is x = - 19, y = - 15
