Answer:
use -9 to multiply the first equation
use -4 to multiply the second equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-4y=28.....eqn (1)×-9
3x-9y=30....eqn(2)×-4
-45x+36y=-252
-(-12x+36y=-120)
therefore, -33x÷33 =-132÷-33
x=4.
substitute (x=4) in any of the equation. I'm just going to use eqn 1.
5x-4y=28
5(4)-4y=28
20-4y=28
-4y =28-20
-4y÷-4 = 8÷-4
y=-2
so, x=4, y=-2
Note: for proof of answers substitute the answers for x and y and see if you have the same result...e.g
5(4)-4(-2)=28.

The cost for carpeting 20 square yards is $230.
Further explanation:
First of all, we will calculate the cost for one square yard then will find the final answer.
So,
Given
Total area = 28 square yards
Cost of carpeting 28 square yards = $322
Cost of carpeting one square yard = 322/28 = $11.5 per square yard
Now to find the cost of carpeting 20 square yards
Cost of 20 square yards = 20*11.5
= $230
The cost for carpeting 20 square yards is $230.
