Answer:

x = -7

y = 42

Explanation:

y = -6x

y = -8x - 14

substitute -6x in the second equation for y

-6x = -8x - 14

add 8x to both sides

2x = -14

divide both sides by 2

x = -7

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

substitute that in to the first equation to solve for y:

y = -6(-7)

y = 42

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

check the math:

y = -8x - 14

42 = -8(-7) - 14

42 = 56 - 14

42 = 42
