Question

Find the solution of this system of linearequations. Separate the x- and y- values with acomma. Enclose them in a pair of parantheses.14x = 65 - 15y7x = -5 - 15yEnter the correct answer.DONE

Answer 1

We will solve as follows:

14x = 65 - 15y

-2(7x = -5 - 15y)

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

14x = 65 -15y

-14x = 10 + 30y

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

0 = 75 + 15y => 15y = -75 => y = -5

*So, we have that the value of y is -5.

Now, we replace and solve for x:

7x = -5 - 15(-5) => 7x = 70 => x = 10.

*So, the solution for the system is the point (10, -5).
