What is the solution to the system of equations

x=-4, y=-7

Problem:
4x-6y = 26
5x-4y=8

You can use substitution or elimination to solve the problem. I’m going to use elimination.

Multiply by -2 => -8x+12y = -52
Multiply by 3 => 15x- 12y = 24

Add those equations together:
7x=-28
x=-4
Plug that into one of the original equations to get y.

4(-4)-6y=26
-16 - 6y=26
-6y=42
y=-7

Check for the other equation to see if this is true. Which in this case it is. So that’s your answer. x=-4, y=-7
