Question

Can anyone help me please:) your supposed to find out the values of x and y

4x+3y=-4​

Answer 1

x = -4

y = 4

Explanation:

2x + 5y = 12 Q1

4x + 3y = -4 Q2

Q1 * 2

4x + 10y = 24

- Q2

7y = 28

y = 4

put y back into equation

2x + 5y = 12

2x + 5(4) = 12

2x + 20 = 12

2x = -8

x = -4
