Question

Find the solution of this system of equations.
Separate the x- and y-values with a comma.
x - 2y = -14
x-y=-12

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -10,  y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 2y = -14

x-y=-12

We can solve by substitution

x = y - 12

For x - 2y = -14

(y - 12) - 2y = -14

-y - 12 = -14

y + 12 = 14

y = 2

x - 2 = -12

x = -10
