So the expression is:

You can combine like terms, which are terms that contain the same variables raised to the same power. That means you can combine the two

.

The other terms can't be combined.
Your final answer should be

.
Hello :)
3x+y=27
-3x+4y= -42
+____________
(3x -3x) + (y+4y) = (27-42)
0 + 5y = -15
y = -3
Put "-3" for "y" in the system:
3x + y =27
3x -3=27
3x = 30
x = 10
Answer = x:10 y: -3
Have a nice day :)
This is one of the easiest ways to get the answer
