solve the system of equations
-6y +11x=-36
-4y+7x=-24
–6y + 11x = –36 multiply both sides x4 –24 + 44x = –144
–4y + 7x = –24 multiply both sides x6 –24 + 42x = –144
subtract 2x = 0
x = 0
–6y + 11x = –36
–6y +(11)(0) = –36
–6y = –36
y = 6
check answer
–4y + 7x = –24
Does –4(6) + 7(0) = –24 ?
–24 + 0 = –24 True
