Answer:

(x, y) = (-1, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your two equations are ...

  • 7x + y = -3
  • 2x - 3y = -14

You can eliminate the y-variable by multiplying the first equation by 3 and adding the second.

  3(7x +y) +(2x -3y) = 3(-3) +(-14)

  23x = -23 . . . . . . . simplify

  x = -1 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 23

  7(-1) + y = -3 . . . . . substitute for x in the first equation

  y = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . add 7
