Can i have help with this algebra 2 problem?,i would like the answer please?

Question

-6x + 5y = 4

7x - 10y = -8

your suppose to use something called the substitution method.....

Answer 1

x = 0

y = 4/5

Answer 2

You can refer to this website :

Hope this helps solve your question.

Answer 3

eq. 1 solve for x, you get

-6x =4 - 5y

x = -2/3 + 5/6y  Now put this into the second eq. , and you get

7(-2/3 + 5/6y) - 10y = -8

7(-4 + 5y)/6 - 10y = -8 and multip everything by 6 to get rid of denom.

7(-4+5y) - 60y = -48

-28 + 35y - 60y = -48

-25y = - 20

y = 4/5

Now plug this into 1st eq. and you get

-6x + 5(4/5) = 4

-6x = 0

x= 0

Answer 4

First you have to isolate either x or y in one of the equations

let's take 7x - 10y = -8

7 x = -8 + 10 y

x = -8/7 + 10 y

Then you substitute x into the other equation

-6(-8/7 + 5y) = 4

After finding out y you can solve for the rest by more substitution...
