Answer:

Answer:

(x , y)=(-31/306 , 775/51)

Explanation:

6x-2y=-144x-3y=-31

Write as a system of equations.

6x-2y=-31

-144x-3y=-31

Multiply both sides of the equation by 24.

144x-48y=-744

-144x-3y=-31

Sum the equations vertically to eliminate at least one variable.

-51y=-775

Divide both sides of the equation by -51.

y=775/51

Substitute the given value of y into the equation 6x-2y=-31.

6x-2x775/51=-31

Solve the equation for x.

x=-31/306

The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair (x , y).

(x , y)=(-31/306 , 775/51)
