Question

Solve the system of equations.
2x=-9y=14

X=-6x+7

Answer 1

x is 7 and y is 0

Explanation:

So you can replace the x in the first equation:

2*(-6y+7)-9y = 14

distributive law

-12y+14-9y = 14

-21y+14=14

-14

-21y = 0

:(-21)

y = 0

Now you replace the y in the second equation with 0

x = -6*0+7

x = 7

ANSWER: x is 7 and y is 0
