Answer:

x=0, y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 9y appears twice in both equations, you can subtract the equations to eliminate the y variable so you can solve for x:

-7x + 9y = -18

-(4x + 9y = -18)

__________

-11x = 0

x = 0

Since we know x=0, then we plug it back into one of the equations to get the value of y:

-7x + 9y = -18

-7(0) + 9y = -18

0 + 9y = -18

9y = -18

y = -2

Therefore, x=0, and y=-2
