Question #d5f91

Answer 1

Solve it like a system of equations.

Explanation:

You might scared of the fractions, but its okay.
`x-4y=9`
`2x-3y=11`
Cancel out some variable (I did -2 to the top to cancel x because it seemed easier)
`-2x+8y=-19`
`2x-3y=11`
`5y=-7`;
`y=-7/5`
Plug it into any equation (I chose the top again)
`x-4(-7/5)=9`;
`x+28/5=9`
`x=17/5`
Check (plug into both equations!)
`2(17/5)-3(-7/5)=11`; `34/5+21/5=11`; `55/5=11`; `11=11`
`17/5-4(-7/5)=9`; `17/5+28/5=9`; `45/5=9`; `9=9`
So `x=17/5, y=-7/5`
