Step by step:
Multiply the first one by -2 to be able to eliminate the x’s
-4x-10y=-28
Add them
-4x-10y=-28
4x+2y=-4
——————-
X’s cancel out your left with
-8y=-32
Divide by -8 to get y alone
Y= 4
Plug in for y to get x
4x+2(4)=-4
4x+8=-4
-8 -8
————-
4x=-12
x=-3
(-3,4)

Answer:

x=−3 and y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by -2,and multiply the second equation by 1.

−2(2x+5y=14)

1(4x+2y=−4)

Becomes:

−4x−10y=−28

4x+2y=−4

Add these equations to eliminate x:

−8y=−32

Then solve−8y=−32for y:

−8y=−32

−8y

−8

=

−32

−8

(Divide both sides by -8)

y=4

Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.

Write down an original equation:

2x+5y=14

Substitute4foryin2x+5y=14:

2x+(5)(4)=14

2x+20=14(Simplify both sides of the equation)

2x+20+−20=14+−20(Add -20 to both sides)

2x=−6

2x

2

=

−6

2

(Divide both sides by 2)

x=−3

Combine like terms to simplify the expression: 7x + 3y - 2 + 6x + 1 + y^2
a_sh-v [17]

The correct answer is B because after you simplifiy the expression, you would  get that answer:

7x + 3y - 2 + 6x + 1 + y^2

combine all the like terms to one side first

7x + 6x - 2 + 1 + y^2

then simplify

13x - 1 + y^2 or  y^2 + 3y + 13x - 1
