3x - 4y = 25
-2x + y =
-10
First, multiply everything on the second equation by
4.
By multiplying, your equation should look
like
3x - 4y =
25
-8x + 4y =
-40 now, add -4y with 4y ( so add 3x with -8x and 25 with -40 also
)
-5x = -15 now divide both
sides by -5
By dividing, your equation should look
like
x = 3 which is your
answer for " x "
Now plug 3 into one of the
equation
-2 ( 3 ) + 4y =
-10 multiply -2 with 3
By multiplying, your
equation should look like
-6 + 4y =
-10 now add 6 on both sides
By adding, your
equation should look like
4y =
-16 now divide both sides by 4
By dividing
your equation should look like
y =
-4 which is your answer for " y "
So your
answer is x = 3 ; y = -4
