Answer:

(2,-2)

Explanation:

The first step is to substitute y in the first equation with the right side of the second equation because they both equal to y.

-3x+4 = 4x-10

-3x-4x+4-4 = 4x-4x-10-4

-7x = -14

-7x/-7 = -14/-7

x = 2

Plugin 2 for x for either equation to solve for y, I'll be using the second equation, but either one is fine.

y = 4(2)-10

y = 8-10

y = -2

Plugin x = 2 and y = -2 into (x,y), and you get (2,-2)
