Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 4y = -11

x - 2y = -5

Compare the coefficients of the variables.

The coefficients of the x terms, 3 and 1, are multiples of each other.

The coefficients of the y terms, -4 and -2, are also multiples of each other.

That makes it easy to eliminate either variable.

I'll eliminate the y variables. Multiply the second equation by -2, then add it to the first equation:

₋-2x + 4y = 10

 3x - 4y = -11

--------------------

 x + 0y = -1 ,  so x = -1.

Substitute -1 for x in either equation and solve for y:

3(-1) - 4y = -11

y = 2

(x,y) = (-1, 2)
