2x -3y = 13

4x -y = -9

Multiply the second equation by -3 to make the coefficient of Y opposite the first equation.

4x -y = -9 x -3 = -12x + 3y = 27

Now add this to the first equation:

2x -12x = -10x

-3y +3y = 0

13 +27 = 40

Now you have :

-10x = 40

Divide each side by -10:

x = 40 / -10

x = -4

Now you have a value for x, replace that into the first equation and solve for y:

2(-4) - 3y = 13

-8 - 3y = 13

Add 8 to both sides:

-3y = 21

Divide both sides by -3:

y = 21/-3

y = -7

Now you have X = -4 and y = -7

(-4,-7)

How do you solve for x
ivann1987 [24]
Clear out any fractions by Multiplying every term by the bottom parts. Add or Subtract the same value from both sides. Divide every term by the same nonzero value. Combine Like Terms. Factoring. Expanding (the opposite of factoring) may also help.

Explain how you can use doubles when multiplying with 4 to find 4x8
hoa [83]
When multiplying by 4, you can simply multiply it by 2 twice (prime factorization).
In this example-
4 times 8 = 32
2 times 2 times 8 = 32

Hope this helped!
