Answer:

X= 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply first equation by -2 and second equation by 1

-2(4x+7y=-14)

1(8x+5y= 8)

= -8x -14y =28

8x+5y=8

Add these equations to eliminate X:

-9y=36

-9y/-9 = 36/-9

y=- 4

Plug in Y to find X

4x + 7y = -14

4x+7(-4) = -14

4x-28+28= -14+28

4x= 14

X= 7/2
