Use the elimination method by subtraction to solve for x and then y. Equation 1 > 2x - 7y = -74
Equation 2 > 3x - 7y = -83
Solve for x and y.
Please and thank you!​

Step-by-step explanation:

Both equations have -7y. You can eliminate them by subtracting one equation from the other:

Multiply equation 1 by -1, then add it to equation 2:

-2x + 7y = 74

3x - 7y = -83

———————

x = -9

2x - 7y = -74

2(-9) - 7y = -74

-7y = -56

Y = 8

(x,y) = (-9, 8)
