Use the linear combination method to solve the system of equations. explain each step of your solution. 2x-3y=13 4x-y=-9

2x -3y = 13

4x -y = -9

Multiply the second equation by -3 to make the coefficient of Y opposite the first equation.

4x -y = -9 x -3 = -12x + 3y = 27

Now add this to the first equation:

2x -12x = -10x

-3y +3y = 0

13 +27 = 40

Now you have :

-10x = 40

Divide each side by -10:

x = 40 / -10

x = -4

Now you have a value for x, replace that into the first equation and solve for y:

2(-4) - 3y = 13

-8 - 3y = 13

Add 8 to both sides:

-3y = 21

Divide both sides by -3:

y = 21/-3

y = -7

Now you have X = -4 and y = -7

(-4,-7)

idk do it yourself or ask somebody idk stop going online asking for
