Question

Solve the following system of equations:
5x-4y=-17
-7x-6y=-11

x=
y=

Answer 1

multiply the first eqn by 6
multiply the 2nd eqn by 4
subtract the new 2nd eqn from the new 1st eqn to eliminate the y
you have one eqn with x as the only variable
solve for x
now you have x substitute in any of the original eqn and find the value of y
remember to check your answers
