Answer:

15x - 4y =-50 -----(i)

3x - 2y=-16 --------(ii)

Using Substitution

From (i)

15x=4y-50

x=4y-50/15

Substitute x=4y-50/[15] into eqn (ii)

3x - 2y= -16

3[4y-50]/15 - 2y =-16

Multiply through by 15 to clear the fraction

3(4y - 50) - 30y=-240

12y - 150 -30y=-240

12y-30y=-240+150

-18y = -90

y=90/18

y=5.

Substitute into any eqn of choice to get x

3x - 2y=-16

3x - 2(5)=-16

3x - 10=-16

3x=-16+10

3x=-6

x=-6/3

x=-2.

x= -2

y=5
