Answer:
y = -1, x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, multiply the top equation by 2 to make 3x become 6x:
6x – 8y = -4
Second, multiply the bottom equation by 3 to make -2x become -6x:
9y – 6x = 3
Add the two equations together, and you get:
y = -1
Plug in y as -1 into the first or second equation:
3x – 4(-1) = -2
OR
3(-1) – 2x = 1
x = -2
