Y = 6x - 14

y = - 8x

x = 1 and y = - 8x

{y, x} = {-8,1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve by Substitution:

/ / Solve equation [2] for the variable y

[2] y = - 8x

/ / Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]

[1] (-8x) - 6x = - 14

[1] - 14x = - 14

/ / Solve equation [1] for the variable x

[1] 14x = 14

[1] x = 1

/ / By now we know this much:

y = - 8x

x = 1

/ / Use the x value to solve for y

y = - 8 (1) = - 8

Solution:

{y, x} = {-8,1}
