Answer:

x = -3

y = 9

Explanation:

Add two equations up

4x + 5y - 9x - 5y = 33 - 18 add or subtract like terms

-5x = 15 divide both sides by -5

x = -3 we can use this information to find the value of y

4x + 5y = 33 replace x with -3

4 * (-3) + 5y = 33

-12 + 5y = 33 add 12 to both sides

5y = 45 divide both sides by 5

y = 9
