Answer:(6,-4)


Explanation:

6x+7y=4x+4y

If (?,-4)


So we are solving for x. Substitute the y with -4.abd solve.


6x+7(-4)=4x+4(-4)


Multiply 7(-4) on left side and 4(-4) on right side.


6x-28=4x-16

Subtract 4x both sides to get x term on left side

6x-4x-28= -16


Now add 28 to both sides to move to the right side because you want to keep x on left side.

6x-4x=28-16

2x= 28-16

Subtract 28 from 16

2x= 12


Divide 2 to both sides

X=12/2

Solve 12÷2=6

X=6

Answer:


S=\left \{ \left ( 6,-4 \right ) \right \}

Explanation:

1) In this equation we have one solution already given for y. y=-4. Let's make it one simplest equation:


6x+7y=4x+4y\\6x-4x=-7y+4y\Rightarrow 2x=-3y

Now, plugging in the y value already given:

2)
2x=-3(-4)\Rightarrow 2x=12\Rightarrow x=6


S=\left \{ \left ( 6,-4 \right ) \right \}
