Question

2x +y = -7y y = x + 10 HELP ASAP PLEASE (solve it)

Answer 1

Solution for the equations is (-8, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

• Step 1: Given equations are 2x + y = -7y and y = x + 10. Simplify the equations.

⇒ 2x + 8y = 0 -------- (1)

⇒ x - y = - 10 ---------- (2)

• Step 2: Multiply eq(2) with 2 to make coefficients of x equal

⇒ 2x - 2y = -20 ------- (3)

• Step 3: Subtract eq(3) from eq(1)

⇒ 10y = 20

⇒ y = 2

• Step 4: Find the value of x by substituting the value of y in eq(2)

⇒ x = - 10 + 2 = -8
