Answer:
x=3
y=1
Explanation:
-2x - 7y = -13
3x + 6y = 15
3(-2x - 7y = -13) = -6x - 21y = -39
2(3x + 6y = 15) = 6x + 12y = 30
-6x - 21y = -39
---------------------- The -6x and 6x cancel out, 12 - 21 is equal to 9, 30 - 39 = -9
6x + 12y = 30
Therefore, you can say that -9y = -9 so y = 1
FInally, plug that back into either one of the original equations:
3x + 6(1) =15
3x = 9
x = 3
