2x + 4y = 14
4x + y = 20......multiply by -4
----------------
2x + 4y = 14
-16x - 4y = -80 (result of multiplying by -4)
---------------add
-14x = -66....as u can see, ur y's cancel out
so ur answer is : 1st answer choice <==
** and just so u know, u could have multiplied the 1st equation by -2, and it would have cancelled out ur x's
Dude tbh, I’m on the same problem as you and I need help with the answer.!!

General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
Equality Properties
- Multiplication Property of Equality
- Division Property of Equality
- Addition Property of Equality
- Subtraction Property of Equality
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
-10x ≤ 40
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide -10 on both sides: x ≥ -4
