Find the solution of the system of equations. 9x +y = 28 3x + 3y = -12

x is equal to four, and y is equal to negative eight.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve it rearranging the first equation to define y:

9x + y = 28

y = 28 - 9x

Now we plug it in to the second equation:

3x + 3y = -12

3x + 3(28 - 9x) = -12

And solve for x:

3x + 84 - 27x = -12

-24x = -96

x = 4

Now we can plug that x value into one of the original equations to find the value of y

9x + y = 28

36 + y = 28

y = 28 - 36

y = -8

Let's test our answer by plugging that y value into the other equation, and seeing if we get the same x value:

3x + 3y = -12

3x + 3(-8) = -12

3x - 24 = -12

x - 8 = -4

x = 4

So we know our answer is correct.
