Answer:
2) x = 6 y = 7 3) x = -5 y= 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2) 10x - 8y = 4
2(-5x + 3y = -9)
-10x + 6y = -18
10x - 8y = 4 Add both equations together
-2y = -14
y = 7 Divide both sides by -2
10(x) - 8(7) = 4 Plug in 7 for the y to solve for x
10x - 56 = 4
+ 56 + 56 Add 56 to both sides
10x = 60
x = 6 Divide both sides by 10
3) Where the two lines intersect, that is the solution to x and y.
The lines intersect at (-5,2). x = -5 y = 2
