Answer:


\boxed{x = 4~~and~~ y = -6}

.

Explanation:

-7x - 4y = -4 (times 5) -35x - 20y = -20

-9x - 5y = -6 (times 4) -36x - 20y = -24

.

Eliminate both equations


-35x - 20y = -20

-36x - 20y = -24


x = 4

.

Substitute the value of x to one of equations


-7x - 4y = -4


-7(4) - 4y = -4


-28 - 4y = -4


-4y = - 4 + 28


-4y = 24


y = (24)/(-4)


y = -6
