Question

Solve this system of linear equations. Separate

the x- and y-values with a comma.
15x = -32 - 14y
9x = -64 + 14y

Answer 1

15x = -32 - 14y

(+)9x = -64 + 14y

___________

25x=-96(+14y and -14y are cancel out each other)

x=-96/25

x=-3.84

put x into the first equation,

15×-3.84=-32-14y

-57.6=-46y

-57.6/-46=y

1.25=y

thus, y=1.25
