Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To solve the system of equations by elimination, we can multiply the first equation by 6 to align the coefficients of $x$ in both equations. The first equation becomes $6x - 36y = -354$. The original second equation is $6x - 7y = -93$. Subtracting the second equation from the modified first equation eliminates $x$, leading to $-29y = -261$, which simplifies to $y = 9$. Substituting $y = 9$ into the original first equation $x - 6(9) = -59$ gives $x = -5$. Therefore, the solution is $(-5, 9)$.
