4x-y=11
Answer by scott8148(6628)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! multiplying 2nd equation by -2 ___ -8x + 2y = -22
adding to 1st equation (this eliminates the y) ___ -5x = -10
dividing by -5 ___ x = 2
substituting ___ 3(2) - 2y = 12 ___ 6 - 2y = 12
subtracting 6 ___ -2y = 6
dividing by -2 ___ y = -3
