Question

Solve by the multiplication with add or subtract method
4x - y = -14
3x + 2y = -16

Answer 1

first multiply the first equation by 2
[4x-y=-14]*2
8x-2y=-28
add the product to the second equation
3x+2y=-16
+
8x-2y=-28
---------------------
11x=-44
x=-44/11
x=-4
plug in the value x in one of the equations
4(-4)-y=-14
-16-y=-14
y=-16+14
y=-2
