2x+y=-6 3x+y=-10 ok, then substract the to eq from each other 2x+y=-6 -(3x+y=-10) so -3x-y=10 so 2x+y=-6 -3x-y=10 -x=4 divide by -1 both side so x=-4 now sub in on of the eq 2(-4)+y=-6 -8+y=-6 +8 to both sides so y=2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you follow this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just a sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thank you
