Answer:

(x, y) = (-16/5, 13
(1)/(5))

Explanation:

4x + 9y = 24

x + y = 10 $\Rightarrow$ x = 10 - y

Substituting the value of x (second equation) into the first equation, we get:

4 * (10 - y) + 9y = 24

40 - 4y + 9y = 24

5y = -16

y = -16/5.

So, x = 10 - (-16/5) = 10 + 3
(1)/(5) = 13
(1)/(5)
