Answer:

-10 times the first equation and 3 times the second equation

Explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 10 and the second equation by -3:

1. 1/5 x + 3/4 y = 9

x-10 ⇒ -2x - 15/2 y = -90

2. 2/3 x - 5/6 y = 8

x3 ⇒ 2x - 5/2 y = 24

Add the equations together:

-2x - 15/2 y = -90

+ 2x - 5/2 y = 24

-------------------------

0x - 10y = -66
