y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the process of deletion. It means to add all the like variables. 11x + (-11x) is just 0 so it cancels out. - 6y+5y is - y. - 19+14 is - 5. This leads to - y=-5. The variable can NEVER be negative. To get rid of the negative, just divide by - 1 on both sides.

11x - 6y = - 19-11x + 5y = 14

11x - 6y = - 19

-11x + 5y = 14
