Solve the following system of equations:3x−5y=−11,7x+2y=−12.Express your answer as an ordered pair (x,y).
We can try solving this by canceling a variable so 2(3x−5y)=−2(11),5(7x+2y)=5(−12)then:35x+10y+(6x−10y)=−60+(−22)we simplify it into 41x=−82,(x,y)=(−2,1)
Do you understand?
Yes!
No problem, thanks!
