Answer:

Explanation:

-5y=4-3x

y=(4/-5)-(3/-5x)

2x+6y=18

6y=18-2x

y=18/6-(2/6x)

y=y

(4/-5)-(3/-5x)=18/6-(2/6x)

0.93x=3.8

x=3.8/0.93

x=4.09

sub 4.09 for the 3x-5y=4

which will give you y=1.65

sub 4.09 for -2x+6y=18

which will give you y=4.36

Answer:

(x, y) = (57/4, 31/4)

Explanation:

-2x + 6y = 18

-2x = 18 - 6y

x = -9 + 3y

3(-9 + 3y) - 5y = 4

-27 + 9y - 5y = 4

4y = 31

y = 31/4

x = -9 + 3(31/4) = 57/4
