Question

-6x + 8y = -60
-4x - 2y = 4

Answer 1

@campbell_st Can you help? (:

Answer 2

multiply equation 2 by 4 and add the 2 equations to eliminate y

- 6x + 8y = -60
-16x - 8y = 16
---------------
-22x = -44

divide by - 22

x = 2

substitute into either equation to find y

-6 (2) + 8y = -60

8y = -48

y = -6

Answer 3

Could you draw it on a graph? :p
