Answer:

solution: (9, 3) , x = 9, y = 3

Explanation:

Negative 4 x + 6 y = negative 18 and y = negative 2 x + 21

convert to algebra.

- 4x + 6y = -18 ;

y = -2x + 21;

let us solve this with elimination

change -4x + 6y = -18 to -2x + 3y = -9

get: -2x + 3y = -9

and 2x + y = 21

add.

-2x + 2x + 3y + y = -9 + 21

4y = 12

y = 3

2x + (3 ) = 21

2x = 18

x = 9

(9, 3)
