You can certainly start out that way, but when you solve that equation for x, it's a little more complex than if you started with the other equation. I usually start with the most simple equation first. Let's take the first equation and solve for y... that will leave us without any fractions to deal with.
2x + y = -14
y = -14 - 2x
Now we have a y value and we can substitute it back into the other equation. So we will replace y in the second equation with (-14 - 2x).
That will leave us with just the x as a variable and we can solve for x.
7x - 4y = -19
7x - 4(-14 - 2x) = -19 multiply the -4 through the parentheses
7x + 56 + 8x = -19 combine like terms
15x + 56 = -19 subtract 56 from each side
15x = -75 divide each side by 15
x = -5
Now we have a value for x that we can substitute back into either of the original equations and then solve for y. I usually go with the easier equation, but it doesn't matter. Let's use the first one...
2x + y = -14
2(-5) + y = -14 multiply the 2 through the parentheses
-10 + y = -14 add 10 to each side
y = -4
So your ordered pair is
(-5, -4)
That is where the 2 lines are equal to one another, so that's the point where they they intersect.
Note*** You can start these problems with either equation and solving for either x or y... it doesn't matter. After you substitute the values into the other equation it will work out the same.

PLEASE GIVE BRAINLIST
By reading this ithink the answer is B=median
A boxplot is a standardized way of displaying the dataset based on a five-number summary: the minimum, the maximum, the sample median, and the first and third quartiles. Minimum : the lowest data point excluding any outliers.
hope this helped
The answer is D, "No, because two points with the same x-value have different y-values."
Essentially, there cannot be more than one point on the same x-line. Point (2, 11) and point (2, 2) are on the same x-line, which is 2.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
8x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
3 + 4x + 2 + 2x + 2x
3 + 2 = 5
4x + 2x = 6x
6x + 2x = 8x
