Answer:
x = -2
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
6x-5y=-32
-7x+8y=46
Solve for x in the first equation.
6x = -32 + 5y
x = (-32 + 5y) /6
x = 5/6y - 16/3
Put x as 5/6y - 16/3 in the second equation and solve for y.
-7(5/6y - 16/3) +8y = 46
-35/6y+112/3 +8y = 46
13/6y + 112/3 = 46
13/6y = 46 - 112/3
13/6y = 26/3
y = 26/3 × 6/13
y = 4
Put y as 4 in the first equation and solve for x.
6x-5(4)=-32
6x-20 = -32
6x = -32+20
6x = -12
x = -12/6
x = -2
