You can put this solution on YOUR website!
find value of x and y
1.)
2x+5y=-9
3x-4y=-2
---------------
Multiply 1st Eq by 3 ; Multiply 2nd Eq by 2
6x + 15y = - 27
6x - 8y = -4
----------------
Subtract 2nd from 1st and solve for "y":
23y = -23
y = -1
---------------------
Substitute into original #1 and solve for "x":
2x + 5(-1) = -9
2x = -4
x = -2
Ans: (-2,-1)
======================

2.)
4x+13y=40
4x+3y=-40
-----------------------
Subtract 2nd from 1st:
10y = 80
y = 8
----
Substitute into 4x+3y = -40 to solve for "x":
4x + 3(8) = -40
4x + 24 = -40
4x = -64
x = -16
---
Ans: (-16,8)
==================================

3.)
2x-3y=-15
y=x-2
---
Substitute for "y" and solve for "x":
=========================================

4.)
2x-3y=-15
x=4y
---
Substitute for "x" and solve for "y":
==========================================
I'll leave the rest to you.

5.)x+y=14
x=6y
6.)y=x-2
7y-4x=10
