Answer:

(x, y ) = (- 2, 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

7x - 2y = - 20 → (1)

9x + 4y = - 6 → (2)

multiply (1) by 2 making the coefficients of y equal and opposite

14x - 4y = - 40 → (3)

add (2) and (3) term by term

(9x + 14x ) + (4y - 4y ) = (- 6 - 40 )

23x = - 46 ( divide both sides by 23 )

x = - 2

substitute x = - 2 into either (1) or (2) for y

(2) - 18 + 4y = - 6 ( add 18 to both sides )

4y = 12 ( divide both sides by 4 )

y = 3

solution is (- 2, 3 )

6x + 7y = 1<br> 8x – 3y = 25<br> Solve me fast explainly
Elenna [48]

Answer:

{x,y} = {89/37,-71/37}

Step-by-step explanation:

 8x = 3y + 25

 [2]    x = 3y/8 + 25/8

Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [1]

  [1]    6•(3y/8+25/8) + 7y = 1

  [1]    37y/4 = -71/4

  [1]    37y = -71

Solve equation [1] for the variable  y  

  [1]    37y = - 71

  [1]    y = - 71/37

By now we know this much :

   x = 3y/8+25/8

   y = -71/37

Use the  y  value to solve for  x  

   x = (3/8)(-71/37)+25/8 = 89/37
