Answer:
{x,y} = {89/37,-71/37}
Explanation:
8x = 3y + 25
[2] x = 3y/8 + 25/8
Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
[1] 6•(3y/8+25/8) + 7y = 1
[1] 37y/4 = -71/4
[1] 37y = -71
Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] 37y = - 71
[1] y = - 71/37
By now we know this much :
x = 3y/8+25/8
y = -71/37
Use the y value to solve for x
x = (3/8)(-71/37)+25/8 = 89/37
