Answer:

x=2, y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

7x+2y=10

-7x+y=-16

-------------------

0x + 3y = -6

Divide each side

3y/3 = -6/3

y = -2

Now find x

7x +2y = 10

7x + 2( -2) = 10

7x -4 = 10

Add 4 to each side

7x -4+4 = 10+4

7x= 14

Divide by 7

7x/7 = 14/7

x = 2

<h2>7x + 2y = 10</h2><h2>-7x + y = -16</h2><h2 />

Since one equation has a 7x and and the other equation has a -7x,

when we add the equations together, the x's will cancel out.

So we have 3y = -6 and y = -2.

To find x, plug -2 back in for y in either of the two original equations.

I've chosen to plug -2 into the first equation to get 7x + 2(-2) = 10.

Solving from here, x = 2.

So our final answer is the ordered pair (2, -2).

Now, check your answer.

B. (2,5)  
For this problem, simply plug in the X values and calculate the Y value and verify that the Y value matches the value given. 
 A. (4,1); X = 4: 3x - 1 = 3*4 - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11. 11 does not match 1.
 B. (2,5); X = 2: 3x - 1 = 3*2 - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5. 5 matches 5.
 C. (4,3); X = 4: 3x - 1 = 3*4 - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11 does not match 3
 D. (0,-3); X = 0: 3x - 1 = 3*0 - 1 = 0 - 1 = -1 does not match -3
 
 And of the above, only option "B. (2,5)" matches.
