Explanation:
substitute y = 7x + 3 in equation 2
9x - 2y = 14
9x - 2(7x + 3) = 14
9x - 14x + 6 = 14
-5x + 6 = 14
-5x = 14 - 6
x = 8 ÷ 5
x = 1.6
subs x = 1.6 into equation 1
y = 7x + 3
y = 7(1.6) + 3
y = 11.2 + 3
y = 14.2
thus, x = 1.6, y = 14.2
I THINK!!!!!! (x, y) = (-4, -25) im not completely sure tho
