Answer:
x = 5
y = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 4x - 9
2x -3(4x - 9) = -23
2x - 12x + 27 = -23
-10x = -23 -27
-10x = -50
minus cancels out
x = 5
y = 4(5) -9
y = 20 - 9
y = 11
Divide both sides by -3
y + 5 = -15/3
Simplify 15/3 to 5
y + 5 = -5
Subtract 5 from both sides
y = -5 - 5
Simplify -5 - 5 to -10
y = -10

Subtract the two equation from each other
-3x-7y=-66
-10x-7y=-24
--------------------
7x =-42
x=-6
by substituting in equation 1
(-3)(-6)-7y=-66
18-7y=-66
-7y=-84
y=12
so to check we substitute in the first equation
(-3*-6)-(7*12)=-66
18-84=-66
-66=-66
we check the second equations
-10(-6)-7(12)=-24
60-84=-24
-24=-24
