Answer:

The answer is x=9 and y=1

Explanation:

First, you have to substitute x from -4x to 9y which is -4(9y).

That would equal -36y.

Then the second equation would look like this:

-36y + y = -35

Then simplify. If you add -36y and y, it would equal -35y.

-35y = -35

Divide -35 on each side.

y = 1

To find the x value, you have to plug 1 into the first equation. (It doesn't matter which equation you plug into).

So if you plug it into the first equation it would look like this:

9(1) = x

9 = x
