Use elimination to solve the system of equations,
5x - 6y = 11
-7x + 5y = 5

x = -5

y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 6y = 11

-7x + 5y = 5

We could eliminate the 'y' by multiplying the first equation by 5 and the second equation by 6 to get the following:

5(5x - 6y) = 11(5)     → 25x - 30 y = 55

6(-7x + 5y) = 5(6)    → -42x + 30y = 30

Now we can add the two equations to get:

-17x = 85

x = -85/17 which is x = -5

Now we can plug in -5 into the first equation to solve for 'y':

5(-5) - 6y = 11

-25 - 6y = 11

-6y = 36

y = -6

CHECK:

-7(-5) + 5(-6) should equal 5

35 + (-30) = 5

5 = 5

i think asking google will you get the answer to that question

answer: 4 (:
