Question 1:
For this case we must solve the following system of equations by the method of elimination:

We multiply the first equation by 2:

We have the equivalent system:

We add the equations:

We divide between 5 on both sides of the equation:

We find the value of the variable "x":

We divide by 8 on both sides of the equation:

Thus, the solution of the system is:

Answer:

Question 2:
For this case we must solve the following system of equations by the method of elimination:

We multiply the first equation by 10:

We multiply the second equation by -4:

We have the equivalent system:

We add the equations:
We divide by -70 on both sides of the equation:

We find the value of the variable "y":

We divide between -4 on both sides of the equation:

Thus, the solution of the system is:
