SOLUTION: x+y=7xy, 2x -3y+xy = 0 by both methods elimination and substitution

Question 884396: x+y=7xy,
2x -3y+xy = 0
by both methods elimination and substitution

A solution using Elimination does not seem possible; but substitution should work.

Solve either equation for either variable; and substitute the expression into the other equation. Solve for the remaining variable for its value and solve then for the other variable's value.

The other equation:

, then multiply left and right by 7y-1,

OR

Continue this for the corresponding values for x....
Use the green-highlighted formula.

You cannot completely separate the x from the y in both equations in order to use Elimination Method.
