HELP PLEASEEEE ITS DUE SOON! SHOW YOUR WORK & ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST I PROMISE

Answer 1

Answer:

(2,10) or x=2 y=10

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Pick one of your equations and solve for a variable. I chose the first equation and solved for x.

5x-2y=-10 (Move the -2y to the other side, you need to do the opposite so you add +2y to -10)

5x=2y-10 (Divide the 5 from the x)

x=2/5y-2

2. Now take what you got for x and plug it into the x variable on the other equation.

3(2/5y-2)+6y=66 (Multiply 3 by 2/5y and -2)

6/5y-6=6y=66 (Move the -6 to the other side and add 6/5y to 6y)

36/5y=72 (Since the number on the y is a fraction, you must do the opposite to the other side)

y=72/1 x 5/36 (Flip your fraction and multiply it by the 72)

y=10

3. Now that you have one of the variables solved for, in order to get the other we must plug in what we have to the first equation.

5x-2(10)=-10 (Multiple 2 by 10)

5x-20=-10 (Move -20 to the other side, since you do the opposite add +20 to the -10)

5x=10 ( Divide 10 by 5)

x= 2

4. If needed, plug in the values of x and y to check your solution.

Hope this could help! :)
